Hockey Program
Last week Years 1-5 began participating in Hockey Australia’s Sporting Schools Program. Students were introduced to some of the basic skills of the game by NSW Hockey coaches, while being supported by class teachers!
For many students this was a new and exciting experience!
SJB Swimming Carnival
2021 School Swimming Carnival
Our school Swimming Carnival was held on Monday at Corrimal Pool and was a successful day enjoyed by those who competed or attended. All swimmers displayed wonderful school spirit, enthusiasm and skill. Every competitor should be extremely proud of their efforts and the wonderful representation of St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School by all.
A special thank you to the volunteers, and the staff present and those who remained at school who assisted with organisation and supervision. We give thanks for the wonderful community we have at St Joseph’s. An enormous THANK YOU to those who acted as parent officials or those who were on hand as backup officials. The role you play in the success of the carnival is immense. The efforts from everyone, for the benefit of our students, are very much appreciated.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
