Rugby Union Day Information - Walgett 2022

St Joseph’s Primary School in Walgett is hosting a Primary Rugby Union Gala Day. This day will be held in Walgett on Wednesday 21st September 2022. This competition is open to students in Year 3/4 or Year 5/6. Participating students are required to be playing in current Rugby Union competitions. We have 3 students from our school who will be competing in this event. Parents will need to arrange transport for their own children to attend the event in Walgett.

All students will be provided with a uniform to wear for the St Joseph’s Team, but I would suggest taking a pair of footy shorts. Footy boots, mouth guard and head gear are compulsory to be worn. Students will also need to bring recess and lunch, plenty of water, sunscreen and a hat.
