Sporting School Grant - Term 1 (Netball)

Our school has received funding through the Australian Government Initiative - Sporting Schools Grant and this term the students will be involved in Netball Clinics scheduled for the 1st, 2nd, 29th and 30th March. Yesterday the students were taught the correct techniques of chest and shoulder passing. I would like to thank Leanne Bland from Netball Victoria for coordinating the clinics on the scheduled days at St Gabriel’s. 

 

Senior School Athletics Carnival - Change of Date friday 17th March

The senior school athletics carnival will now be held on Friday 17th March at Harold Preston Park and the backup date is scheduled for Wednesday 22nd March. I apologise for any inconvenience for the change of date. The District Athletics is scheduled for Tuesday 28th of March to also be held at Harold Preston Park. I would like to thank the senior staff who have been preparing the students for this event. I would also like parental assistance on the day of the carnival. I will need parents to assist on the day of setting up the gazebos at 7.45am and I will need assistance with timekeeping of the running events that are scheduled from 9.45am onwards. I will also require assistance with other duties on the day. If any parents are available on the day please email me on dhogan@stgtraralgon.catholic.edu.au and let me know of what time you can assist and how long you can assist for.
