Thank you to all students who participated in sport throughout Term 2. Your enthusiasm, effort and willingness to challenge yourselves have helped make it a fantastic term of sport at IGS. We look forward to seeing students continue to strive and support one another as preparations begin for the Athletics Carnivals in Term 3.

Thank you to the PDHPE team for their ongoing dedication and support throughout the term. Their organisation and encouragement have helped make Term 2 a successful and enjoyable sporting season for our students.
