House Captain Update
Hey everyone, my name is Angela Tu and I am one of the O'Reilly House Captains. Last week before lockdown, the House Captains ran a futsal competition for the Year 9’s and year 8’s during lunch. Many students participated which was great to see! Round 1 was played by both Year levels with Reis vs O'Reilly and Corbett vs Guelen (results below). When school begins on campus again, we will run round 1 for the Year 10 & 7’s and we encourage students to participate in any lunchtime activities to have some fun and also earn house points!
Year 9 - Futsal round 1: | Year 8 - Futsal round 1: |
O’Reilly v Reis - 1 : 0 | O’Reilly v Reis - 1: 1 |
Corbett v Guelen - 0 : 2 | Corbett v Guelen - 2 : 0 |
Staying active during lockdown
During this time in lockdown, it can be rough for many people but make sure you are trying to stay active! Staying healthy and active can benefit your health and the way you look at everything that is happening right now. Simple things such as going on a walk, playing with your pet, working out, exercising, kicking a ball, playing basketball, etc, can help you stay healthy and active while in lockdown. So get up and do something fun and active!

JOIN US FOR THE PUSH-UP CHALLENGE
The Push-up Challenge is an initiative which helps raise awareness and promote the importance of looking after our Mental Health.
In 2020 3,318 people lost their lives to suicide in Australia. Since then, the numbers are rapidly rising. But their memories are not lost, and their struggles not forgotten.
As of the 1st of June, the Marshall Brothers at CRC have embraced the challenge to remember their struggle, and spread awareness about the mental health conditions that take so many of our own.
We strive to complete 3,318 push ups as a CRC team, in their honor.
We would like to encourage our CRC students, staff and families to join us this June for the Push-Up Challenge.
