Volleyball teams hit the heights

Kiama High’s open boys and girls volleyball teams delivered outstanding performances at the Zone Championships.

Despite our girls team being up to two years younger than much of their competition, they played with incredible determination and skill, securing an impressive second place overall.

The Kiama boys team were equally impressive, finishing first overall and dropping only two sets all day.

Both teams have now qualified for the South Coast Regional Quarter-Finals in early June, where they’ll face the top teams in the region. We’re proud of their achievements and can’t wait to see what they do next!

Exploring future careers

Term 2 is off to a strong start with plenty of exciting career development opportunities underway for Kiama High students.

Year 10 students attended the recent Illawarra Careers Expo, where they explored a huge range of career pathways, training providers and industries.

It was great to see students asking questions, collecting resources and thinking seriously about their next steps.

The Start Your Future TAFE taster courses were also launched recently, with 25 Kiama High students heading out once a week to try their hand at different trades and career areas.

These courses are a fantastic way for students to test out their interests in a real-world setting.

Impressive table tennis debut

Kiama High's best young table tennis players recently travelled to Dapto High School to take on the best of the best at the prestigious South Coast Table Tennis Championships.

Despite hours upon hours spent training in the school hall and in various garages around Kiama, the boys soon realised this tournament is not for the faint hearted.

They were placed in the proverbial “group of death” against three of the top four ranked teams.

The boys - Eddie Peade, Harry Burton, Kolby Guevara and Noa Finney - put up a hell of a fight and proved their worth by making the quarter-finals in their debut appearance and are determined go even further in next year’s tournament.
