Sports Star of the WeekSports_Star.png

Congratulations to Hardy Lin in Year 1!

For the huge growth in his confidence and swimming abilities. 

Infants Swimming Carnival 

After two weeks of working hard every day in Intensive Swimming lessons, our students in K-2 were able to swim in and enjoy their own Swimming Carnival. Students swam races in strokes such as Freestyle, Backstroke and Breaststroke, as well as fun, novelty races. A big thank you to the staff at the Port Pool, Mrs Bancroft and our Sports Captains for running such a wonderful event. Our students' swimming confidence and skills have improved so much in two weeks and we are so proud of them. 

Multisports Week

Our Year 6 Sports Captains are running a whole school Multisports Event Week in Week 9 (next week), to allow our Sport Leaders an opportunity in Term 4 to lead with team spirit and fun after some activities needed to be cancelled during the year.

Due to recent events the Multisports timetable for Week 9 (next week) has needed to change. Please note below on the updated timetable which day your child’s Year group will participate in the Multisports so they can wear their House colours and/or sports uniform. Thank you for your understanding.

We cannot have spectators on site, but will take lots of pictures to share. It will be held in our school playground for each Year group at the following times: 


Monday

Tuesday

Wednesday

Thursday 

Friday 

9:00am - 11:00am

Year 1
9:30am - 11:00am

Year 2 

Year 6

11:40am - 1:40pm

Year 4

Kinder

Year 3 

Year 5 

For each of the Multisports Event sessions students will be split into their House groups and play a range of sports. Students are invited to wear their House colours or sports uniform on their allocated day next week. Please no hair colouring or writing on their body.  The normal uniform routine applies for the days the students are not allocated to their Multisport day (ie. Kinder wear summer uniform on Monday and Wednesday, sport uniform or House colours on Tuesday and sport uniform on Thursday and Friday). All children will need to make sure they have their drink bottle, hat and sunscreen.

House Colours:

Hastings - Green    Macquarie - Yellow    Mitchell - Blue    Oxley – Red

Many house points will be awarded for participation, teamwork and sportsmanship. 

We look forward to this fun, end of term event.

Yours in Sport
