Basketball Season Coming to an End
Congratulations to our basketball athletes and coaches for a fantastic season. Our teams represented our school community with great character and consistent effort. We are so proud of each of you for the time, effort and exceptional character you demonstrated throughout the season. Thank you!
A special mention for our Junior Boys who beat a strong team from Tom Baines School to win the Crowchild Division for the first time in our school’s history, way to go!
Also, in another first for Captain Nichola Goddard School, we wish good luck to our Senior Boys who placed second in the Crowchild Division and qualified for the city-wide Tournament of Champions.
