Coach, Managers and Parents meeting on Thursday 5th April 7pm in the school gym. Please come along to this session to be involved with your childs sporting team. Find out about the culture we want to grow in sports and how you can be involved.

Coaches and Managers:

If you are able to volunteer your time to coach or manage a team. This is another great way to get to know your child’s friends and team mates and to positively influence the students. Any parent who can offer to coach a team and run training sessions for a season (two terms) will be offered a $50 reduction off one of their child’s netball fees. If there is more than one coach the $50 will be halved or one coach selected by the TIC/Sports Dept depending on the experience/suitability/reliability and/or philosophy of the coach.

Please click on the relevant link below for more information on this.

Please note that we are unable to enter any team that does not have a volunteer coach and manager.
