Term 4 Sport wrap up

What a busy term it has been for the students at Balmacewen. Our students have been involved in a variety of sports this term. It has been great to see students challenge themselves by giving different sports a go. All of this wouldn't be possible without our volunteer coaches and managers. A massive thank you for all your support you give to Balmacewen Intermediate.

Fairplay cup

Well done to Ethan T for winning the fair play cup for term 4 and our runners up Indi T and Aiden K.

The Fairplay cup is a tradition at Balmacewen celebrating students showing the school values at school and when playing sport.
