OPEN NETBALL REPORT
Well done to all the Open Netball players who travelled to Boardman’s Stadium, Sunbury on Friday
27th July. They participated in a round robin competition between other winning districts which
meant they played three games in total. Our first game was against Dallas Brooks PS and the final
scores in this game were 21 to 6, Westmeadows’ favour. Everyone played a fantastic game and the win left the
team in a buoyant mood. For the second game we played against Willmott Park PS. They were a well
structured, organised team who had fantastic shooters who never seemed to miss. We tried valiantly throughout the whole game but they were just too good, pipping us at the post. Final scores were 15 to 10, Willmott
Park’s favour. Westmeadows went into the last round determined to perform well and end their day on a high
note. This is exactly how they went about their game against St. Anne’s which they went on to win 24 to 17.
All members in that game played exceptionally well. We then had an anxious wait to discover the final placings
for the day, as three teams had won two games each. This meant the results were decided on the percentage
of each team’s goals scored, those for and against, just like the footy ladders. Unfortunately, this meant that
we ended up being in third place. Dallas Brooks PS finished fourth, St. Anne’s were second placed and
Willmott Park were the victors on the day. Everybody in the Westmeadows PS squad played extremely well
and more importantly, displayed good sportsmanship. Thank-you to all the wonderful support from the parents
who drove to Sunbury to support our team and transport players to the venue and a huge thank-you to one of
our parents ,Lisa Shennan, for stepping in to umpire at that level.
THANK YOU
A fantastic response from our school community in raising a RECORD TOTAL
from the recent CAKE STALL—$1747.00
WOW!!
This great financial assistance lessens the cost of the Grade 6 Surf Excursion to
Ocean Grove later in Term 4.
This CAKE STALL is a “traditional happening” at Westmeadows Primary and
when students reach their final year Grade 6, their parents reap the benefits of
such financial help.
Congratulations to ALL involved, students, teachers, parents, grandparents and
other community members.
