Dear Parents,
As we approach the end of Sports Season 1, I’d like to take a moment to thank you for your support throughout the term. The students have shown great dedication, and we’ve seen wonderful progress across all our sports activities. Please now read the important information below regarding plans for Term 2 Sports.
End of Season 1
Please note that Sports Season 1 has now officially drawn to a close. This means there will be no further training sessions for Boys’ Football or Girls’ Netball during the final two weeks of term.
Additionally, there will be no more ISD Cross Country ECA sessions until they resume on January 7th.
If any teams qualify for finals, these details will be communicated separately through the relevant squad Seesaw groups.
Term 2 Assessments
In preparation for Sports Season 2, the following assessment slots will take place during the remainder of Term 1:
Please note that current Swim Squad members are not required to attend the Term 2 swimming assessments, as we already have up-to-date timings which can be cross-checked.
Additionally, students attending swim squad assessments should be in the Sharks group or an equivalent level to ensure they are adequately prepared for the required standards.
Only selected Year 2 students are required to attend the swimming assessment.
