With the Level 1 announcement, the majority of sport will be running in Term 3 and Term 4 for children in Years 5-8.

Sport Uniforms 

This is the final call for any outstanding sports uniforms to be returned. We are doing a large stocktake of all the sports uniforms at the end of Term 2 and would appreciate getting as much gear back as possible. Please check your child's drawers for sports tops, skirts/shorts and sport socks that they aren't using. The only sports uniforms that should be issued at the moment is the Years 5&6 basketball tops.  A big thank you to Penny Friedel who organises all the sports uniforms and Kelly Hubbard and Michelle Grant for assisting her in this role. 

Years 5-8 School Cross Country
We will be holding our cross country in Week 12, Term 2 (Monday 29 June) at the Quarry. More info about times will come out shortly

School Sport 

Due to Covid-19 we had lots of Canterbury and Zone sporting events either postponed or cancelled. As you can imagine, Terms 3 and 4 are overflowing with sports events. We will be offering as many events as we can to our kids but will need your support in helping with coaching, transport and supervision. 

Teacher representatives from the Lincoln Zone will be meeting tomorrow to confirm dates for our Zone events. Once we have finalised these dates, I will get a message out to all Years 5-8 parents with the confirmed dates for Terms 3 and 4 and the sporting events that we are hoping to enter. If you have skills in a sporting area, I would love to hear from you (natasha.fraser@halswell.school.nz). We are always encouraging our parents to help with coaching or do a one-off session to support them in a sport they have skills in.
