St Patrick's Primary Sports Handbook

St Patrick's now has an official sports handbook. 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. Also, there are lists of all of our various school swimming and athletics records. These will be continually updated if any of these records are broken in the near future.

I would like to thank Lisa Patterson-Kane who has spent a lot of time and effort in compiling this handbook. I know it will definitely assist parents in gaining a greater understanding of what sporting opportunities our school and the diocese provide. Included below is a link for everyone to access the handbook. Also, a copy of the sports handbook will be provided to all families via Compass.
