Mawarra win again

Mawarra are creating a winning streak to rival Queensland in State of Origin after taking out yet another Sydney South West primary schools championships.

Their maroon colour matches that of the "Cane Toads" and they again featured in many of the age-class top-3 placings at Camden Equestrian Centre on Wednesday.

We had more than 300 eager students in Years 4-6 go for a map walk with a coach, then do an age race, and finally a mass start relay that is always the highlight of the afternoon.

We loved overhearing one teacher - who is retiring on Friday - say: "I wish I had known about this day years ago. It's fantastic."

A huge thank you to organisers Sandy Stewart and Lyn Malmgron and their team of helpers. You can see photos of the day on our Facebook page here. Feel free to download them for personal use.

Last week the SHOO club hosted the Southern Highlands high schools gala day at Mittagong, where Macarthur Anglican College prevailed at their first attempt.
