Primary Sport

Term 2 co-curricular Sport is up and running this week. Years 4-6 IPSHA Netball and Minkey starts this Saturday 24 April. An email has been sent to all parents with daughters enrolled in Sport this term with information on how to access start and finish dates, Team lists and draws as well as pick-up and drop-off information. To view and download Team Sheets for Saturday Sport Competitions, go to the Sport Course on Cognito. Information is listed under each sport heading in the Modules tab.

Year 3 girls playing Netball this term will have a training session on the Top Court at SCEGGS from 8.00am-9.30am. Please ensure your daughter has applied sunscreen before arriving at school and has a full water bottle. As this is a training session parents are asked to drop their daughters off at the Sports Hall and not stay and spectate.

Should you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to contact Sue Phillips or Xanthe Axford.
