Check out the links for our sports draws etc. Also a link to a great article from Sport NZ about child growth and development.
Fingers and Toes crossed to get a team selected to play in a Rippa Rugby Tournament on Friday with the All Blacks Rugby Team. Mrs Casey has entered a Year 3/4 and Year 5/6 team into the competition, so we hope to get a team selected to play.
If you are looking ahead to next term, all 3 of our main winter codes, miniball, netball and hockey continue through most of next term too. Nearer the end of next term we will be opening registrations for Touch, Futsal, Flippa Ball and T Ball, keep an eye out for these.

The policy with SNOW DAYS for miniball is that if schools are closed on that day, there is NO Miniball for that day. If it is a late start, then miniball continues as normal after school.
ALL children NEED a mouth guard to play miniball, so please ensure you have this ready to go.
Feel free to send through any game reports and / or photos of your teams in action. :-)
