NETBALL
Hi Netball Families,
Thank you for registering your child. Teams have now been finalised and you will receive notes about your coaches and teams before the end of term. Please consider helping out in our netball club! Many hands make light work!
Emma Elliott
Secretary St Nicholas Netball Club
PAPER FREE
As a school we are trying to reduce our carbon footprint and are going paperless for sports notes this year. All sporting events will be sent out via Compass and parents will notify of their child's interest via the Events link in Compass. There is no need to print off notes and send them in as their interest is automatically recorded. Their selection of events for the swimming and athletics carnivals are also done using Compass. When a registration fee is required for a Diocesan sport e.g. Winter trials, Compass Pay will be available for this. Please contact the office staff if you are having difficulties accessing Compass.
