WAS Athletics Carnival, Dubbo
The KWS Athletics team travelled to Barden Park Athletics field, Dubbo to compete against All Saints, Scots, Blue Mountains Grammar, Orange Anglican and Macquarie Anglican at the WAS Athletics Carnival.
This was a practice carnival for the students in their preparation leading up to the HICES Athletics Carnival on 28 August.
Our students competed well with the introduction back to athletics again after some time off from Term 1. Some personal bests achievements were also performed! The students were a credit to the school and were well behaved.
Thank you to Mrs Caro, Connor and Katie (our gap staff) who helped with the team on the day.
Sporting Program for K-2 Students
Starting next Wednesday 15 August, K-2 students (who are not involved in KWS sport) will have the opportunity to participate in either the Hookin2 Hockey program or the Get into Rugby program. This runs after school 3.30pm – 4.30pm. We have specialised coaches from NSW Hockey 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, passing, striking skills, moving into space etc). 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
