What excitement we have had this past weekend, bagging a first, second and third place in the various age groups of the PGSGU Netball tournament. Congratulations, in particular, to Ms Theron and her 1st Netball girls who won the Under 19 trophy. This was a well-deserved win that has come after years of perseverance, dedication and sticking to a game plan. We are all so proud of this achievement!
