Dates to Remember

Soccer Gala Day New Date

The Diocesan Gala Day will now be held on Friday 3rd September. A new permission note and call for help with carpooling will be sent out later in the term. Fingers crossed the weather and COVID will be kinder to us!

Diocesan Athletics Carnival

The Armidale Diocesan Athletics Carnival will be held on Friday the 13th of August at the Tamworth Regional Athletics Centre. This

carnival is a selection event for the Polding Athletics Carnival at the Hunter Sports Centre, Glendale, on Friday 10th September 2021. Notes have been sent home with those students who qualified. The events they qualified for are highlighted on the note. There was a typo on the note in regards to costing. The cost for participation is $8 which is to be made via the Qkr! App. All notes need to be returned by this Wednesday 21st of July. Unfortunately, at this stage there are no spectators allowed at this event. Students will need to be dropped off and collected from the event. I will be the supervising teacher in attendance.

Diocesan Cricket Trials

Ayden Coward and Cooper Marheine participated in the Armidale Diocesan Cricket Trials held in Tamworth yesterday. Both the boys played wonderfully and it was a great experience for them both. Well done boys on representing our school with such pride and enthusiasm.
