NEW DATE: Tuesday 23rd August
Diocesan Athletics Carnival
We have made the difficult decision to postpone our Athletics Carnival, originally scheduled for tomorrow, Friday 12th August. Our rescheduled date is now Tuesday 23rd August, 2022 with all other details remaining the same.
I understand that this is not ideal and will cause disruptions to your school and families, but a decision to put the safety of our students at the forefront was required. The difficulty of finding a second date also causes disruptions for schools, as I can appreciate a School Calendar is a busy one. However, track and official availability were also required to be considered.
Thank you for your understanding and patience, I appreciate it.
Kind regards,
Heidi Hardaker
Armidale Diocesan Sports Council

NSWCPS Netball Competition
There is a lot of buzz going around the school in regards to the Sydney netball trip. The students are very excited to say the least. I have included the information that went home via compass as I am aware that looking at this on anything other than a computer is very difficult.

All spare seats on the bus to Sydney have been filled. Please consent and pay vis Compass.

The bus will leave once all students are marked on the roll (no later than 9am). This will allow plenty of time for travel and convenience stops and an early arrival at our accommodation at Cable Wake Park, Penrith. A message will go out on compass with an ETA for Tuesday night.
