Diocesean Selection Trials
Just a gentle reminder of the process that our School has when it comes to Diocesean Selection Trials. This has been put in place so it is a fair system for all students. Firstly, students in the correct age group are asked whether they wish to trial. Those students then take a note home which requires both the student and parent to sign a code of conduct form. Once this has occurred, students are then invited to trial on specific dates. Reminders are regularly given to students at morning assemblies regarding upcoming trials. Usually 2 or 3 trials occur (this is so if a student is away for a trial they have an opportunity to be seen at another time). 3 selectors will be involved in the trial and they then choose the students that fit the criteria set down by the diocese. The number of students selected is up to the discretion of the selectors and school. Once selected the students take home the selection note. Parents then register online via the CSNSW portal. It is very important parents are aware not to register students prior to receiving the note from the school. The Principal or delegate then approves the application of those students only who received notes. Once this has been done the Sports Coordinator at the CEDB receives the registrations.
