2021 Western Zone Champions!

While it’s been a quite term in the high school sports department due to the current climate, we’ve got incredibly exciting news. Every year, the best performing schools in each zone: North, South, East, and West are awarded the Sporting Schools Shield. We are very proud to announce that the Australian Islamic College Adelaide is the 2021 Western Zone Champion. The historic moment for our school is only possible due to the incredible talent of our students, as well as the commitment, hard work and love they put into their sporting ventures.

This achievement should not be overlooked as it will, and has already, pushed our students into believing they are capable winners. Their drive for success will only become stronger as they realize what they can accomplish. This is a lesson they will hopefully take into their lives outside of school and into the future.

Grants and Coaching!

Once again, we have managed to successfully acquire a sports grant for term 1. The grant money was used to bring in high quality soccer coaches from Football Australia to take several sessions throughout the term. The leftover funds were used to purchase new soccer balls, both indoor and outdoor.

We have also continued our partnership with the Port Adelaide Football Club, who have come into our school to run AFL skills sessions for our Stage 1 Integrated Learning students. We hope that these sessions will help give us the best opportunities for continued success in the Power Intercultural Cup later this year.

Excursions!

We have participated in the following sports excursions this term:

  • Senior 3v3 Basketball Western Zone Competition
  • Junior 3v3 Basketball Western Zone Competition

Upcoming excursions this term:

  • Year 12 Ice Skating Bonding Session
  • Middle School Rewards Excursion: Ice Skating
