Winter Sport Uniform

Training and matches for Winter Sport is well underway. Full school tracksuits need to be brought to school with training uniform especially when going home after sport on the bus.

Full tracksuits are required when students have PE. They must be worn to and from school on these days. Hats are also compulsory all year round.

For Hockey training, many students are not bringing warm clothes. It can be extremely cold and layers (especially when playing) are needed. Unfortunately, we are having too many students needing to miss out on training due to lack of mouthguards, incorrect shoes and wrong uniforms. Please assist your children to pack the correct uniform and equipment.

WAS & HICES Cross Country Carnivals

A wonderful day of competition was had at the WAS Cross Country Carnival on Friday 18 May at Orange Anglican Grammar School. The set up and quality of the course was excellent, with our competitors being challenged running a true cross country course.

Sporting Program for K-2 Students

Starting this Wednesday, K-2 students (who are not involved in KWS sport) will have the opportunity to participate in either a NetSetGo Netball program or a Get Into Rugby program after school 3.30pm – 4.30pm. We have specialised coaches from NSW Netball and NSW Rugby coming in to deliver these programs. Both these programs are designed to introduce and develop student’s fundamental gross motor skills (catching, throwing, and passing, moving into space). Both are non-contact programs.

An email has been sent to all parents in K-2 in regards to these programs. If you are keen for your child to attend, please email or contact the Prep Office Prepoffice@kws.nsw.edu.au.
