Transition News
This week we enjoyed a special performance
about protecting our environment. Hand
puppets and shadow puppets taught us how
fragile our environment is and the importance
of looking after it.
Our phonemes are ‘oa’ and ‘ie’. We made
ugly ‘toads’, colourful boats and buzzing
‘flies’. We floated our boats on water.
Next week is the last week of Term 2.
Thursday is our last day and the children
return Tuesday, July 22.
Regards Liz, Deb and Sally.

6 YEARS MUSTANGS
The Mustangs played with their jumpers and tracksuit pants on in their
match out at arctic Oberon. The team of Matilda, Alex, Alexander,
Lachlan and Andrew showed improvements in all aspects of play.
Such was the temperature that the team opted out of resting at half
time to keep up the heat levels. The team scored a number of well
executed goals and continued with their strong defence. The player
of the match medal was awarded to Lachlan. Mr. R. Roach
7 YEARS BRONCOS
All Saints’ Broncos V Oberon United Cubs
The Broncos were missing many of their regular players for this
game. However, the heroic Under 6s saved the day by agreeing to
play an extra game in order to support our Bronco regulars. A very
special thank you to Alex Buckley, Angus Crosier and Andrew
Jackman for coming to the rescue. By half –time the score was 2 all
after excellent goals from Lachlan Buckley who received excellent
support from his team mates. We faded a little during the secondhalf
as we had many tired players and the final score was 4 to 2 for
the Cubs. Simon Pandoulis was awarded the David Beckham Medal
of Honour for Player of the Match. Well done Simon and all of the
team. A special thank you to our team supporters who always give
great encouragement to the mighty Broncos. Remember there is a
general bye this coming weekend. Mr Hines
9 YEARS SOCCER
With a sunny but cold day, our All Saints boys started the soccer match
with much enthusiasm this week. Following a string of five wins in a row
this year, the team was determined to collect number six. Skilful mid field
play by Henry and his powerful boot produced a fast game. Thomas, David,
Riley, Chris, Bud and Victor produced some fine team coordination, all
helping to out play the opposition and keep up the pace of the game. As
Goalie, Sam saved many hard and fast goals attempts by
Red Tops in the first half and in doing so, kept All Saints
ahead. Excellent goal keeping in the second half by Jack
did the same. Overall co-ordination helped our boys
outplay and maneuver the well prepared City Red Tops
this week and this sportsmanship produced the first goal
by Cameron. Full of confidence, the team picked up the pace and Matthew
quickly scored the second goal for the team. Last week’s Player of the
Match Sam scored a great goal and the final goal by Cameron placed All
Saints in a 4-3 winning situation before full time. A well deserved Player
of the Week went to Jack Morrison. Special thanks must go to Matthew
Jackman and Victor Chua for playing this week. Well done everyone. Mr
Redpath

Under 6’s Hockey
On Saturday we played St Pats. We welcomed Kian Blackshaw into the
side for his very first game. He scored 3 goals and now we are trying to
convert him from soccer! We had a very strong first half. In the second
half St Pats made a surge but we held them off with our solid defence. A
special thank you to Tirah and Shona Jarvis who filled in as goalie for St
Pats. Our award this week went to Shona Jarvis – well done Shona.
Under 10 Rugby Report
On Friday 13 th June the Under 10 Rugby Team travelled to Blue
Mountains Grammar School for two matches. They were victorious in
both games; ASC 10 - Kinross Woloroi 0 and ASC 25 – Blue Mountains
Grammar School 5. I would like to congratulate all of the boys for their
determined and courageous efforts. I look forward to seeing the boys
improve their skills even further and continue to enjoy playing rugby.
6 YEARS BRUMBIES
The Brumbies played against a young Eglinton team and
displayed some excellent skills during the match.
Angus worked really hard at passing the ball,
whilst James and Nadia displayed some excellent
dribbling skills. Patrick continued to drive the
ball forward with some powerful kicks and Ben
received the Player of the Match award for his non
stop enthusiasm. Well done on another great match Brumbies. I
hope you enjoy a well earned rest this Saturday. Mr Cant
7 YEARS COLTS
The colts were part of an exciting match on Saturday at Proctor Park.
The game resulted in a draw. All players put in their
best effort which was excellent. Each week it gets
more difficult to choose a player of the week. I wish I
could give it to everyone in the Colts! The medal was
awarded to Charles Crowley at the weekend and it was
very well deserved. Charles was fantastic in defence
and he wasn’t afraid to tackle the opposition. Anna Van
Heekeren also worked hard in defence. Bailey showed
his skills off in attack. Charlie Rumbel was fantastic at marking players
on the opposition. Sam Nugent looked up the sideline for space when
he was taking kicks. Kian Blackshaw showed great strength with his
kicking. Bryn O’Brien was a fabulous team player and he thought
carefully about where his sideline kicks would go. We have learned
a number of skills so far this season and it is unbelievable how much
we improve each week. Congratulations Colts! Miss Keene
10 YEARS SOCCER
The ASC U10’s reached a high point in the season last week when
they defeated Eglinton 3-1. It wasn’t the win that marked the high
point but the way the team played. A complete 50 minutes of passing
and teamwork were the pleasing features of our game. From the
start of proceedings ASC dominated territory and possession, the
combination between Hayden (our player of the week) and David
set the benchmark for the rest of the team to follow. Soon Fletch
and Wilko followed suit and the pressure finally
turned into a fine goal for Henry. The defensive line
remained strong with Mathew managing a committed
backline with Will (who pulled off the tackle of the
day – if only he was playing Rugby it would have been
deemed legal!), Marcus, Henry Morgan and Lachy
Mac remaining solid. The 1-0 half-time score almost
flattered Eglinton who had very few opportunities. The second half
began with an Eglinton goal against the run of play but ASC kicked
back into gear, a sensational goal from Hayden put us back in front
and the final nail was driven in by Henry. The right side wing play
from Wilko was again outstanding and the hard work in the middle
was once again handled admirably by Victor, Roan, Mathew and
Fletch. Cameron worked well up front with Henry to terrorise the
Eglinton backs. It was a season defining performance by the team
that they can hopefully build on. Mr B. Van Heekeren

NETBALL REPORTS
More great games were played on Saturday with lots of enthusiasm
and determination. I was kept on the run as three games were on at
the same time. Special thanks to team managers Lisa Coates and Ruth
Crampton for their help and a big thank you to the parents who did
clubhouse duty for the Redbacks. I would again ask that players arrive
half an hour prior to the game. It is quite difficult for team organization
when players arrive just as the game is about to start. Good luck for
Saturday everyone. Gabrielle Darlington
ASC Superfrogs May 31
On Saturday 31 May the Superfrogs took on the Sparkles in a very
exciting game. It was neck and neck all the way with goals being
scored by Libby, Catie, Katie and Sophie. The defence of Alex and
Steph sent the ball back our way many times and our attacking skills
are improving all the time. We ended up with a well deserved win.
Thanks to our coaches Lauren and Emma and to Mrs Darlington for
her never ending encouragement. A special thank you to Mrs Crampton
for her warm up skills and the energy boosting mandarins! We are all
looking forward to our next game. Sophia Grant.
ASC Superfrogs June 14
On the 14th June the ASC Superfrogs played the Eglinton Angels. It
was a 2 all draw. The cold wind made it very difficult to shoot and pass.
However, we were pleased with how we played. Alex and Stephanie
did some excellent intercepts. Katie picked up some tricky rebounds.
Sophia and Sophie’s movement and speed around the court was great.
Libby and I were just happy to be playing netball. Thanks to Jess for
filling in for our coaches Emma and Lauren. Sophia and Alex got
players of the week. Catie Crampton.
ASC Puppies
On Saturday the ASC Puppies played the Collegians Angels. The
puppies played a strong game and passed the ball very well. Abby
and Priscilla had some great shots at goals and they scored four goals.
Selina Betar
ASC Redbacks
On Saturday 14th June, the ASC Redbacks versed Oberon Snow
Devils. It was an enthusiastic effort from both teams. In the beginning
Oberon took the lead by one point but by the end of the game we had
overtaken and the score was 28-11 our way. Alex Coates put in 100%
in being the team leader. She supported us when we were called up
for something. We all tried as hard as we could but Emily Brabham
showed excellent effort and cooperation during the game. I had heaps
of fun playing the Oberon Snow Devils. Hannah Beckley
ASC Netta Bunnies
On Saturday 14 June the Netta Bunnies played netball versing the
Collegians Stars. We played very well. We started off with a really
good game. Allie put in lots of effort. We ended up with 4 goals and
it was a great game. Hannah Armstrong
