ATHLETICS CARNIVAL - Friday 18 June
Our annual Athletics Carnival will be held on Friday, 18 June 2021 at Myimbarr Oval, Shellharbour (opposite Shellharbour Workers Club). All children from Kindergarten to Year 6 are expected to attend. The children will be leaving school at 8:45 a.m. The Carnival will be completed by 2:15 pm and students will return to school for 3.00 pm dismissal. ALL children must travel to the field by bus and there is no cost for the day.
Parents who would like to take their children home at the end of the carnival, must speak to the class teacher and sign out before they are taken.
Please complete the online consent form via your Parent Portal.
Carnival Lunch Orders
A canteen will be available on the day, with pre-orders required. A separate Compass notification has been sent with details on ordering, as well as a paper copy of the order form provided to every student. Please see a copy below also. These orders are due back to school in a brown lunch bag with the correct money by Tuesday 15 June. A coffee van will also be available at the venue from 8:30 am-11:30 am for parents and families to use if you wish.

Ribbons for each event in each age group (boys and girls) will be presented to the first 3 places. Male and female age medallions will also be presented in each age group at the Celebration & Learning Assembly on Thursday 24 June. Infants ribbons will be presented for 5, 6 and 7 years 70m sprint event only.
LOOKING AHEAD ...Soccer Gala Day - Friday 23 July
We will be entering teams in the Diocesan Soccer Gala Days in Week 2, Term 3. These will be made up of Senior (Year 5 and 6) and Junior (Year 3 and 4) students. They have expressed an interest in this, so if your child is asking questions please note that the Compass event will be published in Week 10 this term with all relevant information attached to the event.
We were fortunate to open this to all students who were interested from these grades, so if your child has said they will be going, then they are probably right. Please see Mr Murphy if you are unsure.
Please note, that it is expected that parents will organise transport to these days (either with themselves, other family members, or with other known families from school). Year 5 and 6 will be at Albion Park and Year 3 and 4 will be at Nowra.
As always, happy sporting adventures and you are welcome to see me anytime with any questions.
Mr Murphy
