ST NICHOLAS SCHOOL ATHLETICS CARNIVAL

A huge thankyou to the parents, teachers and students for going with the flow at Tuesday's Athletics Carnival which was full of new experiences. We really enjoyed testing out the new synthetic track. Thank you to Chloe, Blake, Brady, Hannah, Claudia and Chloe from McCarthy for their assistance on the day.

At the time of publishing the winning house, age champions, runner ups and Diocesan team has not been announced. This will be announced tomorrow, Friday.

POLDING CROSS COUNTRY

This event has been postponed until a later date when COVID restrictions are lifted. Good luck to Lachlan Mulligan who will compete at the NSW PSSA Cross Country in Sydney. 

NETBALL

VISORS: An update on netball visors - I have ordered more adult netball visors. They should be approximately 1 weeks away. 

Thanks for those who helped on our last duty for the year on Saturday. It was a miserable day, but we are grateful to still play netball!

We are well into the second half of the season. Going forward, we will have our AGM towards the end of the term. 

Due to COVID restrictions, the End of Year Presentation will most likely be the same as last year - Mrs Elliott presenting trophies to each team at school with a blurb from the coaches. Each team is more than welcome to have their own little celebration at the end of the season.

Thank you for the continued hard work of our coaches who volunteer their time to coach the students. Thank you to the players who support other teams by playing for them when they are short of players. Thank you to the parents who support the coaches by being positive and helping out. Thanks to the players who display excellent sportsmanship week after week!

Thanks so much!!
