🧘‍♀️ Yoga with Year 1! 🧘‍♂️

Today, our Year 1 students were lucky enough to have Mackenzie’s mum, Steph, join us for a wonderful yoga session!

We learnt a variety of yoga poses, practised our breathing and took some time to relax our bodies and minds after a big week of learning. 🌈✨

We are excited to continue our yoga sessions each week, learning new poses, improving our balance and flexibility, and developing strategies to help us feel calm, focused and relaxed.

A big thank you to Steph for sharing her time and skills with us! We can’t wait for our next session! 💕🧘‍♀️

🏏💛💙 TOCUMWAL PS BOYS CRICKET – BRIAN TABER SHIELD ROUND 4 💙💛

Our Tocumwal PS Boys Cricket Team took on the combined Oaklands, Berrigan and Jerilderie team in Round 4 of the Brian Taber Shield State Knockout Competition.

Winning the toss and electing to bowl, Maverick Lankester got us off to a fantastic start with two early wickets, supported by a tight bowling spell from Max White. Jack Petersen also picked up a valuable wicket, with the opposition finishing their innings on 88 runs.

Unfortunately, our boys found runs hard to come by in the chase, with Maverick Lankester (7) and Patrick Taylor (5) leading our scorers. Tocumwal finished on 26 runs.

Although it wasn't the result we were hoping for, our boys should be incredibly proud of their efforts, determination and sportsmanship throughout the competition. They have represented Tocumwal Public School wonderfully! 💛💙

👏 Congratulations to the combined Oaklands, Berrigan and Jerilderie team, affectionately known as the 'JerriBerriO's', who progress to the Riverina Semi-finals against Holbrook. We wish them all the best!

A big thank you to Greg Tunn and Pete Lankester for helping with umpiring duties, and to the Tocumwal Cricket Club for providing their fantastic facilities and beautifully prepared oval. We really appreciate your ongoing support of school cricket!

Well done, boys! We are proud of you! 🏏💛💙

🏏💙💛 WHAT A FINISH! TPS GIRLS CRICKET TEAM THROUGH TO THE RIVERINA FINAL! 💛💙🏏

WHAT A GAME!

Our Tocumwal Public School Girls Cricket Team has secured a thrilling ONE-RUN VICTORY over South Wagga Public School, winning 62–61 in a nail-biting contest that came down to the very last ball! 🏏

Played at the Tocumwal Cricket Oval, the match had it all – outstanding bowling, sharp fielding, determined batting and a finish that kept everyone on the edge of their seats!

Captain Kobi bowled first, claiming wickets with her first two deliveries and finishing with outstanding figures of 3 wickets for just 5 runs! 👏 She was brilliantly supported by Rose, Mila, Emily, Whilloe, Ivy, Chelsea and Emilia, with fantastic teamwork and sharp fielding resulting in FOUR RUN-OUTS, restricting South Wagga to 61 runs.

Our innings got off to a tough start, with Kobi dismissed on the very first delivery. Mila got the scoreboard moving with a lovely boundary, while Emily and Whilloe battled hard at the crease. Chelsea and Ivy then combined for a fantastic partnership, showing tremendous patience, concentration and determination to keep our hopes alive. When Chelsea was dismissed, Rose joined Ivy at the crease, and the girls continued to fight hard.

It all came down to the FINAL BALL, and our girls held their nerve to claim an unforgettable one-run victory! 💙💛 What an incredible effort from every member of the team!

A huge thank you to Greg Tunn for umpiring, Christina Arthur for her wonderful support, and the Tocumwal Cricket Club for providing the oval and preparing such a fantastic playing surface. We really appreciate your ongoing support of school sport!

🏆 NEXT STOP: THE RIVERINA FINAL! 🏆

Our girls will now travel to take on Young Public School in what promises to be another exciting contest!

Congratulations, girls! Your teamwork, resilience and determination have made our whole school community incredibly proud (once again!). 💙💛

Good luck in the Riverina Final – we'll all be cheering you on! 🏏🙌
