Diocesan Winter Trials Wrap Up

Last Friday, Angus, Albert, Henry, and Lochie (Boys Football), along with Emily, Claire, and Claire (Girls Football), and Bentley (Open Rugby League), traveled to Tamworth with the goal of making it into the Armidale Diocese Team for their sports. Emily and Albert made it to the possibles vs probables stage but regrettably, none of the students were able to secure a spot in the diocesan representative team due to tough competition from a high number of participants from all over the diocese.

St Patrick's Primary Sports Handbook

St Patrick's now has an official sports handbook and it has been updated after the school swimming carnival held recently. This book is designed to give all members associated with our school a clearer understanding of when our school conducts our various sporting carnivals, the processes/qualifying times involved for students who want to represent our school at Diocesan sporting events as well as an explanation of the representative sporting pathways your child may want to undertake in their respective sports.
