Sports Day 2024

Staff and students are looking forward to Sports Day and we know that parents are too. It is going to be an amazing day so please ensure that you pack a hat, sunscreen and water.  

To ensure a successful day for everyone, staff suggested some ways in which you as parents/caregivers can support your child and the teachers so that the day runs smoothly.

1. It is essential that your child is at school in class by 8.50am.
2. As you move around events with the class, adults are asked to listen to the teacher for instructions and for requests for assistance.
3. To ensure the safety of non-school-aged children,  please supervise them at all times.
4. Students are expected to bring a bottle of water, a healthy snack, recess and lunch. A hat and sun cream is essential!
5. Students are encouraged to dress in their house colours!
6. Students are encouraged to go to the toilet during recess and lunch. If parents take students during events – staff must be notified and parents can only take their own child.
7. Staff will be responsible for the care of your child as part of our duty of care – students must communicate with staff when they are leaving the group location and this is essential when leaving at the end of the day.
8. Parents are reminded that they are only permitted to photograph or video their own child.
9. During the Relay, Sprints and Tug-of-War we ask that all parents/caregivers stand behind the black line to ensure the safety of all students

Sports Day Program

The Sports Day Program is still in development and will be emailed out to families in the coming days. 

Sports Day Parking

On Sports Day we have requested for the West Torrens Council to relax normal parking restrictions. However, they will continue to police the area and will expiate for:

• Parking across driveways;
• Parking too close to intersections;
• Parking in no-standing zones, some     of which are for certain hours of the day only
• Any other offence apart from exceeding a time limit.

We encourage families that live in the local area to walk to school due to the limited parking around the school.

Late Arrival and Early Dismissal

Any students who arrive late on Sports Day will need to sign in at the First Aid Room, which will be located out of the Primary Science Room. 

Parents may collect their children from teachers, from the school oval, at the completion of the day. Please notify the classroom teacher and then sign out at the First Aid Room. The remaining students will be dismissed at 3:10pm. 

We are looking forward to a wonderful day!
