Hi everyone, We have had a very busy/ successful start to the school year. It has been great to see sports running at their pre-covid norms. We have had many students representing our school at Cross-Country/ Soccer and Volleyball. It's great to see students having fun and competing their hearts out - well done to all students who have participated on a team and thanks to all parents/ guardians making this possible by transporting your children around the city for the various events! We have also been busy in PE classes - so far students have participated in Soccer, Ultimate Frisbee, Volleyball and a variety of games/ activities based on teamwork, movement and high energy. Keep up the great work and participation levels everybody. Mr. Couper
