Golf
Congratulations to Tanvi C (Year 3) who participated in the SSV Golf Tournament at Gardiners Run Golf Course.
Tanvi continued her great success from last year and won the event by one stroke with a score of 62 and will now be competing in Regional finals in November.

If there are any students in Years 3-6 who play golf and are interested in participating in a School Sport Victoria Golf Tournament
​please see Ms Papamichael for further information as there are more tournaments in which students can participate. 
Tanvi's Golf Report
On the first of May, I represented Donburn Primary School at a Golf Victoria tournament at Gardiners Run Golf Club in Lilydale.

There were four girls (including me) competing in the event. The course was very long and I had to start at the 6 th hole and I finished on the 5 th hole. They had us starting at different holes around the course so that we didn’t have to wait for other competitors.

I came first with a score of 62. I won a Puma brand belt and some Golf Victoria golf tees. I felt proud to represent Donburn at this event.

Thank you Donburn for supporting and encouraging me with my golf. With all of the support from my school, family and friends I have made it to the regionals! I compete in November at the Keysborough Golf Club. I am hoping to make it to the State & International competition.

​If I make it to the international level, I will go to USA to meet Tiger Woods. If I get this opportunity, I will be very honoured
