Hi Families,
Hope this finds you well and enjoying the cooler weather.
2025 Dates for the diary:
Term 1:

Tuesday 25th March: Yr 4 Gala Day
Thursday 3rd April: Yr 5/6 Gala Day
District Swimming Team
Thank you to everyone that attended the Swimming trials last Wednesday morning! Appreciate the effort of attending an early morning session. It was great to see the students give their all! If they didn't make it this time, there are plenty of other opportunities this during the year to be part of different types of sports.
Congratulations to the following people that will be representing SJV at the District Swimming on Wednesday 26th February. An Operoo will be sent out during the week. If you are available to assist in any way on the day (usually helping with some timing), we would really appreciate it.
Team Vic Key Dates
At this time of year some parents will ask me about how their child can apply for a spot in the SSV Team. Here you will find the key dates for when registrations will open for each of the sports. Please ensure you have a read of the information sheet that should answer all of your questions. Parents are able to register your child in a sport that they feel their child excels in. Please be advised it is a highly competitive process.
If there are more than 3 students that apply for a sport, SSV will advise SJV as we are only able to endorse 3 students for one sport. The only other time SJV needed to be involved is if your child makes the Vic Team, the principal will be asked to endorse the student before they can register for the team. I hope this answers some of the questions you may have.
As always, please get in touch if required.
