Rugby Success

Well done to those students selected in various regional and state teams and to one student awarded a prestigious scholarship.

Harry Allen 

Harry was recently selected in the Queensland Country U16 team that participated in the Emerging Reds Cup over the holiday break. Queensland Country has its first win since the competition began. Harry scored a pick and drive try to help his team to the win.

Isaac Fidock 

Isaac starred in the recent U16 Emerging Reds Cup, gaining selection in the QLD Reds U16 side that compete in a national competition in the coming weeks. Isaac demonstrated his elusive skills and dangerous attaching skills during the tournament, bamboozling the opposition defence. This is an outstanding achievement for Isaac – we are very proud of his efforts and achievements. Headgeared fullback Isaac Fidock, 15, was a standout. The Somerset College student from the Gold Coast was an elusive figure from the back field.
