Hockey Trip to Italy

Posted on : May 1, 2019

This Easter the girls had their turn for a sporting trip abroad. Just before the school broke up for the holidays the Junior Hockey Team and staff members, Elayne McDermott and Patricia Henry headed off to Italy. There they were hosted by Potenza Picena Hockey Club where they played matches with the local club. As well as playing hockey the girls visited Frassasi Caves, met the Mayor and were spoiled with some great Italian food! A great time was had by all and the girls want to thank Ms McDermott and Ms Henry for making it all possible.
