Entries and Trainings
Students will be able to sign up to be considered for team selections on a Compass post that has been activated. This gives us an indication whether we have the interested numbers to enter a team. If students fail to sign up, then we must assume that there is little interest, and that team will not be entered. Look for the training Compass post send out on a Friday or each weekend.
Trainings will occur on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays afterschool 3.15-4.15.
CSEF Fund
If your family qualify for the Camps and Excursions fund (CSEF) provided by the Govt. you need to collect a form from the General Office. This helps you pay for all camps and excursions, but it must be registered by June.
