Of particular note, our Boys First Basketball Team secured the 2024 APS Premiership. Congratulations to all team members, Team Manager Duncan Berg and coach Rhys Carter for guiding the team through the season undefeated.

Special mention to Kate, Keyaan, Isabella, Georgia, Ella, Alexandra, Mitchell, Angelina and Kevin who were named in captaincy roles on the day.
Cricket Victoria emerging player squad announcements
Congratulations to Bhanu (Year 10) and Thivyaa (Year 12) for being named in the Victorian Country emerging players U16 and U19 squads respectively.
Congratulations also to Madeline (Year 12) and Inakshi (Year 11) who have also been named in the U19 Victorian Metro emerging players’ squad.
This is a wonderful reward for our students in what is fast becoming a growing sport for girls at Haileybury.
U15 Victorian Lacrosse representative team
Congratulations to Year 7 student Zara on being selected in the U15 Victoria representative team for lacrosse. Lacrosse is not a sport we hear a lot about but hopefully we will in the future as we follow Zara and her endeavours.
We now look forward to our spring season of sport getting underway and wish all our Dance and Aerobics Teams the best as they embark on National campaigns in the coming weeks. We look forward to sharing their results with you in the next edition.
