Success & Achievements
Many Cornerstone College students were successful in being selected for the Adelaide Hills Junior Soccer Association 2022 Representative Teams with five of the Year 7 students selected for the two Under 12 teams. On the weekend of 11-13 June the Representative Teams competed in the South Australian Junior Soccer Association State Championships held at Gepps Cross. The Under 12 White team played brilliantly all weekend scoring 21 goals and conceding 0 goals in the minor round matches. They were rewarded with making it to the grand final, winning and becoming the State Champions. The Under 12 Red team made it to the semi finals, finishing third in the Championship, a great achievement for a team who are all first year Rep players. On the weekend of 27-28 August the teams travelled to Mildura to compete in the Country Championships. Again, both Under 12 teams had great results that saw them play each other in the semi final. The game was played in great spirit, with the Under 12 White team victorious and gaining a place in the grand final. They went on to win the grand final 6-1, the only goal they conceded in the six matches across the weekend (and scoring 37 goals). Attached is a photo of the Cornerstone College Year 7 students who were in the Under 12 teams. Levi Beesley (Year 7) (Under 12 Red), Cooper Liddle (Year 7), Hayden Lien (Year 7), Edwin Hawthorn (Year 7) and Harrison Gould (Year 7) (all Under 12 White). It’s great to see all these students as part of the Year 7/8 Knockout team.
Bella Masters (Year 10)
Bella Masters spent last week at the Royal Adelaide Show competing in the Junior Show Jumping series, against some of the country’s best up and coming riders. Across the week Bella competed in 4 jumping classes – 110cm, 115cm, 120cm and the Grand Prix class 125-130cm. The highlight was jumping clear in the jump off round in the Junior Grand Prix class for 5th place. Well done to Bella and Samsonite.

Sienna McClean (Year 11) & Ella McClean (2020)
Sisters, Ella and Sienna won the REBOOT Competition at the NQ's Rock'n Country Music Festival in Mackay last weekend. This means they are off to Nashville, USA next year to record a new single. Congratulations to you both − we can’t wait to hear what you produce in the home of country music!
Chelsea Clarke (Year 11)
Last weekend Chelsea competed at Werribee Spring Horse Trials, an International ranked event, placing 3rd overall in the 2*, only 1.5 penalties behind the winner, in what was a very large and highly contested class. Chelsea won the Highest Performed Young Rider in this class, finishing on her dressage score, having no penalties in the show jumping and cross country phases, going clear on jumping and clear on time allowed to complete both.
