Cobden Technical School had some outstanding results on the day with the following students qualifying for the next level of competition:

Remeny McCann    Long Jump
Kurt McDonald       1500 metre Run
Ashley Ovens        110 metre Hurdles and Long Jump
Paul Pekin            100 metre Dash and 200 metre Dash
Cheyenne Rohan   Javelin
Emily Wetemans    Javelin

The School was very proud of all competitors at the event and wish those going to the School Sports Victoria State Track and Field Championships  all the best when they compete in October at Olympic Park, Melbourne.

The Victorian Rugby Union and the Melbourne Rebels Rugby team came to Cobden Technical School on the Tuesday May 10^th to conduct a coaching clinic for the students. As a result of the very strong interest in the new sport being offered by CTS the school will have two teams at an interschool Carnival at Melton on May 25^th.

Mike Motu, a former professional rugby player in Italy, conducted the clinic on the school grounds with two groups of boys, 16 and under and 14 and under. The boys were highly engaged in the clinic and quickly developed the basic skills and understanding of the rules of the game.

The Year 12 Physics students had an interesting class last week with an excursion to Melbourne’s Luna Park in St. Kilda. As part of the VCAA’s program to engage students in how Physics is applied to objects in motion, the theme park was run exclusively for Year 12 VCE Physics only.

Approximately 400 students from around the state attended the day.
As a was done last year, Cobden Technical School partnered up with Timboon P-12 and Terang College allowing us to work together in developing a local competitive spirit between the three schools for future coursework and assessment tasks.
