Summer Round Robin Day

On Friday 22/11 our Year 6 students will participate in a District Summer Round Robin Day. The sports will be T-Ball, kickball, netball and T20 Cricket. Its focus is on fun and participation. Please note due to the warm weather forecast, we will now finish at 1pm and play shorter matches.

Please let me know if you can assist with coaching or umpiring for our T-ball or T20 cricket teams. smichelsson@hfmw.catholic.edu.au
