Welcome back to Sport in 2023 

My name is Mitch Clark and along with Meg Hubbard, we are the Physical Education teachers in 2023. We are very excited for another big year ahead in sport! Here are some of the key events in the first few months of the year. 

District Swimming (Monday the 20th of February)  

It was great seeing so many students attend the try-outs for our District Swimming team last Sunday. The 2023 team will be selected shortly and will represent Rangeview at the Nunawading District Swimming Carnival on the 20th of February, good luck!  

Before School Run Club (8:25am - Oval)  

Run Club will commence from this Tuesday 7th February. We will meet at the crossing near the oval at 8:25am every Tuesday and Thursday morning, unless the weather is inclement (an email will be sent at 7:30am on the morning, if the event it is cancelled due to weather). Run Club laps will be recorded each day and students will be acknowledged for on-going participation throughout the year with awards being given for 100, 200 and 300 laps. If you are able to assist with the dots or supervision around the course at any time, that would be greatly appreciated. All students welcome!
