Soccer
Now is the time to ask friends/family if they have old soccer/football boots in the cupboard!
There is also a Boot Drive organised by Shepparton Junior Soccer Association on 6th April 11-1pm at McEwan Reserve -Small Pavilion. This is an opportunity to exchange boots or purchase second hand boots for $10 a pair.
We have registered THREE Foundation soccer teams for the upcoming season. The uniforms have been ordered and equipment is on its way. The first game of the season will be Saturday 27th April.
There is an SJSA meeting for coaches & team managers at McEwen Reserve on 24th April at 7pm.
The $120 fee is the only payment required for soccer. This covers the Soccer Association fee, uniform, umpires/game fees for the season. Families are responsible for providing boots/shoes and shin guards for soccer.
TRAINING -is not essential for students at this age. The Saturday games will allow for fun and an introduction to team sport. We will encourage the students to be involved in some lunch time sessions with staff and Year 7 students prior and during the season.

Community Volunteer Grant
Way back in September 2018 we applied for a Volunteer Grant to purchase equipment that will support the role of volunteers in our Sports Association and School. This week we got notification that this was successful! We look forward to sharing details of our purchases next term.
Massive Murray Paddle
We would love to have a Year Seven relay team to compete in the Murray River Marathon in November 2019. This is an amazing five day paddling adventure covering 404km of the Murray River from Yarrawonga to Swan Hill. This would require commitment for training and the event for 8-10 students -no prior experience required. We currently have five students registered.... we need at least three more to go ahead.
