Specialist News-Sport & PE
Mrs Rachel McLeary
Welcome back to PE and Specialist Classes. We have started back with specialists this week and it will be great to get the students back into routine early. Students will need to wear their full sports uniform on their PE day with sturdy runners and a hat. During Term 1 we will focus on routines and appropriate behaviours in PE and Sport. The Prep/1/2’s will work on developing their basic Fundamental Motor skills and ways to play safely in PE. The Year 3-6’s will start with a unit of Net Games including Tennis, Newcomb and Volleyball. They will learn skills and strategies for all Net Games and learn how to score and play fairly in full and modified games.
Swim Trials
Does your son/daughter swim confidently? If so, they may want to consider representing Trinity at the District Swim Trials. Our district does not hold a carnival for selection purposes, so the only fair way to select swimmers is by way of time trials.
These trials are open to swimmers in Grades 3, 4, 5 and 6 who are able to meet the following qualification times; THEY MUST BE ABLE TO SWIM 50m IN THEIR CHOSEN STROKE IN UNDER 60secs.
Children must turn 9 years in 2023 to be eligible to enter. Age groups are calculated as the age the child turns during the year of the competition, i.e. between 1 January and 31 December. Each competitor may enter two individual events and a relay. The trials will commence at 10.30am on Wednesday 15 February, at Richmond Leisure Centre. Please see Mrs McLeary for a form if you are interested in finding out more information.
FIT Club
FIT Club will be starting back next week Thursday 9th February. Trinity Fit Club is a Free, Before School activity, open to all Trinity students every Thursday at 7.40am on the Oval or in the MPR if the weather is bad. The children will take part in some fun activities to get them moving. Senior students from St Kevin's College will join us most weeks to run some sport or exercises to help get the students ready for learning. Please come along and join us!
