HEATH MORRIS
Welcome, everyone! It’s so great to see all the students’ enthusiastic faces and energy for the year ahead.
I am excited to help develop each child’s fitness, skills, and abilities across various aspects of Physical Education. From ball-handling skills to cricket, netball, archery, water polo, and swimming, there’s a lot to look forward to!
This term, swimming will be for Classes 2 to 6 during Weeks 4, 5, 6, and 7, with the Carnival Fun Day scheduled for Friday, March 14th in week 7.
