SPORTS REPORT, WEEK 2
This Term has got off to a wonderful start with our 12/13yr Girls Freestyle Relay team finishing in the top 8 swimmers in the state and smashing their personal best time to get there. A big thank you to Mr Gray for attending this event on behalf of the school and to the parents for making the long journey to Melbourne for the race. Well done!
Division Athletics
Last week we listed the 17 students who will be representing our District at the Division Athletics Carnival on Friday 7th May. There will be practice during lunchtime today and Thursday for individual events and the relay will practice on Tuesdays, for those interested. Students are permitted to come to school in their School Sports Uniform on these days.
Winter Sports – Football, Netball, Tee Ball and Soccer (Years 5 and 6)
Children in Year 5 and 6 were sent home with a note last Friday with preferences for winter sports. Please ensure that your child chooses their preferences carefully. These preferences will be used to organise tryouts and practice sessions in the coming weeks. Please return these to your Classroom Teacher by Wednesday 28th April.
Cross Country
The school cross country will be held on Wednesday 5th May 2021. Please fill in the following form if you are able to help out with marshalling an event on the day.
This annual event will take place around our school grounds incorporating a 1km, 2km and 3km course. Your assistance would be greatly appreciated on the day. Each helper will be required for 8:45am - 11am (Foundation - Year 3) or 11:20am - 1:30pm. (10 year olds - 12/13 Year olds.)
All students are being encouraged during our P.E lessons to participate in the School House Cross-Country as it teaches us both mental strength and physical endurance. The students will be training for this and learning how to run the long distance. (It might be a good idea to send a spare pair of socks to school with your child on their PE day, as we might run on wet grass!)
Basketball and Touch Football Clinics
These clinics will be occurring later in this term and early in Term 3.
Golf Tryouts
Mrs Joel Saywell will be assisting us at lunchtime on Mondays, in selecting students from Years 3 - 6 to represent us at the upcoming District Golf competition on Friday 14th May.
