New Netball Court is (finally) being installed!

After huge shipping delays, the school's new netball court surface installation finally began today, bringing an end to what has felt like an endless wait!

Students and teachers gathered to watch as the construction team worked, marking the start of a project that we've been waiting very patiently for since the installation of the basketball surface last year. The new professional-grade surface will make a world of difference, providing better grip in all weather conditions and much-needed shock absorption for safer play. When completed this week, the temporary fences will come down and the area will finally be complete. 

The new court will transform PE lessons and give our netball players the quality surface they deserve. After all your patience, it's exciting to see this long-awaited improvement finally becoming reality.

Don't forget to pop past when you have a chance, to check out the progress in person!
