I ask you to join with me in sending a huge thank you to Cathy Betts (Rugby League) and Joanna Heather (Netball) for the work they did training their teams in the lead up to Regional Shield and supporting them over the 2 days in Rockhampton last week.

A thank you must also be extended to the Rugby League coach, Jason and assistant coach Corey for their time and effort in supporting our students.

Congratulations to our Calliope State School Rugby League team for coming Runners Up in the CQ Regional Shield competition.
