This winter holidays, 30 boys from the Lindfield, Wyvern and Stanmore campuses competed at the annual Sydney Interschools Snowsports Championships at Thredbo. Of the 30 boys that competed,  9 boys qualified for the NSW State Championships to be held on 27 August at Thredbo.

Of these boys, some impressive results included Flynn Gannon (6/HO) achieving Gold medals for both of his snowboarding events and Will Rumi (6/LU) finishing 5^th for Snowboard GS. In the Seniors, Harry Quinn (8/KL) finished 6^th in his Snowboard division and Jonathan Sharpe (9/JN) finished 8^th, despite competing against several boys in the Year above. Sam Martin (7/MA) finished 5^th overall in his Moguls event also competing against several boys from the Year above.

I’m sure you will all join with me in congratulating these boys and the whole team which gave a great account of themselves down on the slopes this winter for Newington College!
