Primary Sport
In Primary School sports news this week read about:
Primary Swimming Carnival
Get ready to make a splash! The Primary Swimming Carnival (Years 2-6) is less than a week away on Wednesday 18 November.
A few important reminders for the day:
- Students must stay for the duration of the Carnival, as they would for a normal school day. Approved leave is required from Mrs Dempsey for any early departures.
- There will be no canteen facilities available for students. Please ensure your child has enough healthy food to fuel them for the day.
- At the conclusion of the carnival, students will either return to school by chartered bus or be collected by a parent/carer from the venue. If your daughter will be collected from the pool, please provide written permission to her classroom teacher in advance.
- Students returning by bus will arrive back in time for normal carline collection.
- Students need to come to school in their full sports uniform with swimming costume on underneath.
- After school sport will proceed as usual, though attendance is optional. If your daughter will be absent from after school sport, please inform the relevant Sports Coordinator or email sport@sceggs.nsw.edu.au
More information about the day can be found in the Week 1 edition of BTGG.
