A special thank you goes to all staff who took the teams out on sport, athletics and cross country, it would not have been possible without you!
Term 3 sport has started on Monday 5th August when the Intermediate Basketball, Table tennis and Futsal teams competed. All students in Years 9 and 10 were invited to participate in these sports.
This will be closely followed by the Year 8 teams competing on Friday 16th August and the Year 7 teams on Wednesday 21st August
Beachside Division Athletics will be held at Duncan MacKinnon on Monday 16th September.
Please ensure that if your child is participating in sport that they arrive to school on time, in correct uniform and have food and water for the day.
If your child is participating in Futsal or Hockey and has shin pads it would be ideal if they could bring them with them on the day. If your child is participating in table tennis and has their own table tennis bat it would also be helpful if they could bring this along. If your child does not own their own shin pads or table tennis racket, the school will provide them.
