After School Soccer

Just a quick update to let you know that Term 2 After School Soccer nomination letters were sent out to classrooms last week. Children were able to choose if they wanted to take a letter. The program will run as a clinic-style training session (focused on skill development rather than games) and will take place at school on the Big Park.

When: Term 2, Week 2 to Week 9

Time: 3:30pm – 4:30pm

Who: Open to all Year 2-6 children of all experience levels. Year 1 children are welcome with parent/guardian supervision.

Further details, including fees and registration, are outlined in the letter. Nominations are due by this Friday, 4 April.

If you have any questions or would like to nominate your child, feel free to reach out at kbartlett@stpaulba.sa.edu.au

Looking forward to another great term of soccer!

Library Author Visit

Next Monday, 7 , during morning break, the library is very excited to be hosting our very own resident author, Bethany Clark! Bethany will read her latest picture book Little Love List, a gorgeous publication exploring all the ways we love our children no matter how fun or tricky their day has been. This will be followed by a fun activity where children can create their own Little Love List mobile. All children are welcome!
