School Sport Australia—Under 12 Netball Carnival

In September, Kelis Jackson–Mar%n travelled to Canberra to par%ci-

pate in the Na%onal Under 12 Netball Carnival for a week. Kelis was

selected to represent the Budgies Indigenous Team and played

against other States and Territories of Australia. She par%cipated in

games of netball against the best under 12 netball players from

around the na%on. Playing in 14 games over the week, the Budgies

managed to come away with 6 victories including an impressive win

against Victoria. Kelis shared the week playing with two other stu-

dents from Port Augusta and had the opportunity to visit Parliament

House, the Australian Ins%tute of Sport and to watch the Australian

Women’s Basketball team play China. Well done on this achieve-

ment and the excellent efforts given while par%cipa%ng in the carni-

val.

exci%ng learning.
