upcoming major events

Out and about with the Headmaster Mr David Gates

There was a real buzz at the Rugby Trials held on the Scots Campus Main Oval last Saturday. There was a good crowd in attendance for the games against St Stanislaus College and the boys played quite well in their new combinations. All this augurs well for the coming season. There is a real sense of expectation in the rugby ranks for the new competitiveness that the merged college will provide. The first ISA home game will be against Blue Mountains Grammar on Saturday 4 May at Scots Campus. I hope to see a big crowd for this important fixture. Most students were very well presented last Saturday in formal uniform; this is the requirement for all students at rugby fixtures unless they are on the way to or from another sporting fixture such as netball or hockey. If this is the case, then they are required to be in full College track suit. It is important that uniform standards are improved upon next term. I will be policing this at the next home game and the expectation will be that all students are wearing their uniform with pride. The College Cattle Team has a big week at The Royal Sydney Show from Tuesday through to Sunday. This is the highlight of the year for members of the Cattle Team as they have been preparing the steers since September. The students who have been involved in the Cattle Team over the last two terms have developed a whole range of personal skills through this program. Not only do they learn a great deal about steers and preparing them for showing but they also learn to work together as a team, develop resilience as they face challenges, take on responsibility, mentor younger students new to cattle, develop patience and humility, have fun and a great deal more. continued page 2 Scots Campus Pre-K, Boarding (Years 5-12), Senior School (Years 9-12) 4173 O’Connell Road BATHURST NSW 2795
