St Edward's Representative Shirts
If your child participated at Diocesan Athletics and is NOT representing St Edward's at the Soccer Gala Day next Tuesday 20th, can you please return the St Ed's representative shirt. As it stands we will not have enough for the soccer teams if they are not returned.
ADPSC Netball and Soccer Gala Day
As per the Compass notification, the new date for the Gala Day is Tuesday 20th September (next week)
Students may be dropped off and picked up. It is not necessary for parents to stay for the day. Please see your child's coach so that you know who to take your child to for their name to be marked off on the roll, and who they will be with for the day. If you could be at the fields/courts before 9am that would be great. There will be 2 gazebos set up for the day at each location. This will be a base for you and your child and team to return to.
