Primary Sport

Over the next 3 weeks students from Year 3-6 will start class rotations through a variety of activities for sport. As part of the rotation each week, one class will be going Ten Pin Bowling at ‘Shake, Rattle and Roll’ and another will be heading to the Indoor Centre or King Fit while the other 6 classes will stay at school and participate in basketball, touch, indoor hockey, sofcrosse, cricket or tee ball. This week it is 3/4C’s turn to go to King Fit ($3.50) and 3/4GD will go bowling ($8.00). If you have any concerns please contact Mrs Dal Santo. Diocesan Winter Trials

Over the next week senior Primary students will trial for Netball, Soccer, Hockey and League. These trials are for individuals and are not for school teams. Only 5-6 students are selected for each sport. If students are selected at a school level they must be available to go to Diocesan Trials on 6 April in Tamworth and then if gaining further selection, Polding Trials in Tamworth on 4 May. If your child is selected they will receive a note early next week.
