2016 marked yet another memorable experience for both East Preston ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ and Al ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ. EPIC stole the show with 4 wins out of the 6 matches played in the competition.
East Preston ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ played host yet again to the annual East Preston Cup. Now in its fourth consecutive year, students from Years 5 to 10, both boys and girls, participated in the competition. Upon arrival students moved on to their respective soccer areas. The girls competition was held in the gymnasium, and the boys on the undercover hard-court area.
To kick off proceedings the Year 5/6 teams commenced play first. The game consisted of two 15-minute halves, with a short brake in-between. The girls 5/6 match was played in amazing spirit, and again two years in a row Al ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ were triumphant. The 5/6 ASC boys’ team was also amongst the winners, with a victory settled in a penalty shootout.
In a fast and very skillful display, EPIC looked strong early during the Year 7/8 boys match. EPIC opened the scoring early, leading 1 – 0 at the halftime break. The ASC boys had numerous opportunities. However, the strong defense and forceful pressure from the EPIC midfield players proved too strong, leaving ASC scoreless and taking the game 3 – 0.
During dhuhr pray, all students gathered in the Masjid. This was a beautiful example of the brotherhood and sisterhood.
With Allah’s grace and blessing, Sevdet joined Al ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ as the Head of Physical Education & Health in January 2015 with over 10 years of experience working in youth programs, the last 5 of those years in education. Alhamdulillah.
Sevdet has grown up with a passion to organise and develop programs. Prior to his years working in education, he has had unique work experience facilitating sport and recreation programs for young male and female offenders in the Parkville Youth Justice Precinct.
Sevdet has also had many camping experiences, coordinating leadership programs and camps for youth living in Carlton, as well as young male offenders from within the Malmsbury Youth Justice Centre.
Sevdet aims to contribute his experience and enthusiasm for sports and camps to the ¾ÞÈéÊÓƵ in an effort to help build well rounded sports students, who can participate in community sports for good health and leisure beyond their schooling lives, inShaAllah.
