Earlier in November the Australian Disc Golf Championships were held in Hobart at the Poimena Reserve in Austin’s Ferry! ON Thursday 7^th December and Thursday 14^th December, our Grade 5/6 classes tested their frisbee skills out at the reserve.

The labels hadn’t been removed from the Championships, so our courses didn’t quite match up with our maps however all groups did a great job at navigating their way through the course!

Here are some comments from some of our frisbee players:

• Oaklahn – I would recommend starting from the 1^st
• Seth – It was pretty good and fun to try different ways to outsmart the wind!
• Haley – It was fun!
• Lachlan – You had to try and make your score the lowest, it was challenging!

The Poimena Reserve Disc Golf course is operated by the Glenorchy Council with the support of local volunteers. Anyone can play and the course is open to the public all year round from dawn until dusk and is free! It is also not that far from the Derwent Valley! If you would like more information about this course please visit their website where you can look at photos, read about events coming up, check out the map and download the scoring sheets: https://poimenadiscgolf.com.au/

We would like to say a big thank you to our parent/carer volunteers, we had so many which made our excursions run smoothly as we had smaller teams! Thank you, Ms Bennett, Mr Jelkic, Miss Robertson, Mrs Kaitinis, Mr Saunders, Mrs Barber, Mrs Ferriss, Mrs Watson, and Ms Douglas for accompanying our groups and assisting our students in scoring! We appreciated your help.
