South Coast schools champs a little ripper

There was high praise for our South Coast schools champs at Albion Park on Wednesday.

Kev Curby and his team of helpers ensured a wonderful day out for the 64 students at Croom Regional Sporting Complex

"Thanks Kevin to you and your volunteers for organising an amazing experience for our students," wrote the Nowra Public School sports co-ordinator.

"Several kids plan to attend the state championships and orienteering was the talk of the school today, even prompting some of our reluctant writers to report on the day for our newsletter! We certainly would like to attend next year."

Likewise at Jerrabombera. "I was singing your praises about our day to everyone today," wrote their teacher."It was wonderful. You also have a great bunch of helpers who really understand that they are dealing with children who have very little knowledge of orienteering."

With Riverina and Centennial Park also behind us, our next regional champs are Sydney South West primary at Camden Equestrian centre on Wed Jun 22. And a reminder that entries for the NSW schools champs (at Bankstown on August 27-28) are open.
