Representative and Gala Day Sports Costs
Thank you to our P&F for their generous support in covering the majority of the 2024 sporting costs. There have been significant increases in expenses for children to participate in Representative Sports and Gala Days.  Due to the increased cost, the P&F will support half payment in 2025 to reduce the cost for families. These fees are charged by the venues to cover their costs. 2025 sporting fees will be minimal and will be required when providing consent via Compass. 

School Handball Competition
Due to popular demand, we held another handball competition for students in Years 1-6 this term. With 123 starters, this was a massive few weeks of games, ending with finals last week. 
Well done to everyone involved - the level of skills and enjoyment has greatly increased across all players this term. Students also learned lots about sportsmanship, including how to be respectful winners as well as losers. 
Congratulations to the Term 4 Handball Champions below:
Grade Boys Champion Girls Champion
Year 1 Tupou Roukaya
Year 2 Zander Liliana
Year 3 Joseph Ella
Year 4 Levi Isla
Year 5 Mia Hussein
Year 6 Nicholas Joella

Thank you to Mrs Agius for her organisation of this competition.


Cost to play sport survey
The Australian Sports Commission (ASC) and Federation University are conducting a study to understand the costs associated with delivering and participating in community sports.
To gather valuable insights, we'd like to invite you to complete a short online survey about expenses related to sports participation.
The results of this project will be used to make recommendations to inform the ASC sports policies and strategies to minimise the cost of playing sports.
We encourage you to complete the survey with the details below. The survey closes at 5pm (AEDT) on Tuesday 31 December.
Thank you for helping us foster an understanding of the costs involved in community sport.

Wishing you all a restful break, hopefully with lots of leisure time to enjoy the outdoors and activities you enjoy.
