2024 Pupil Free Days


Sports Day

Get ready for Sports Day! This year, Sports Day will be held on Friday, 22 March and we welcome all families to attend.

 

By now, students should have brought home a note indicating their house colour for Sports Day. Please contact us if you haven’t seen the note and don’t know what colour your child/ren should wear for Sports Day.

 

If you are looking for SunSmart clothing for the day, head to https://sportsdayessentials.com.au/  before 11 March and enter code GPS24 to save on shipping and earn $ for our school! Make sure you enter your child's name and class in the comments section before you check out. This is essential as the items will be labelled, delivered to GPS and sent home with your child one week before Sports Day.

 

Please keep in mind that students are required to wear their school hats (alternative hats will be unacceptable). We respectfully ask that students do not wear short shorts or clothing that doesn't cover shoulders, midriffs etc. Coloured zinc can be applied sparingly to face and body, full coverage is not permitted.
