Rowing is often considered the ultimate team sport. Team work, unity, camaraderie and friendship are all critical elements to ultimate success. Our Rowing crews rely on each other, with everyone doing their absolute best at exactly the same time. The 2021 Season is one to be remembered for years to come. For the first time in St Catherine’s Rowing history our crews took out both the Schoolgirl 1st VIII and Schoolgirl 2nd VIII events at the Head of the Schoolgirls’ Regatta. To win both events in the same year is an exceptional achievement. To cap off a remarkable season, four of our current students; Chloe Cooper, Zara Bongiorno, Sarah Marriott and Bronte Cullen were selected in the Australian Junior Women’s Eight, an outstanding accomplishment.
