School Carnivals and Gala Days

With COVID restrictions still in place we are unable to confirm any dates or involvement in gala days and school Cross Country and Athletics Carnivals. As restrictions begin to ease we will communicate with the community about these days. A reminder to please get your ACT Swimming Carnival nominations in to me asap. 

School Sport ACT Scholarships

After three long years in the making, School Sport ACT is very pleased to announce the launch of the SSACT Scholarship Fund.

The attached document contains the Application Form and information, including;

• The School Sport ACT Scholarship Fund aims to provide assistance to families that may choose not to have their child trial for selection or accept the selection of their child to an ACT representative team, as they are unable to meet the financial requirements of competing.
• The Scholarship Fund is open to applications from students travelling interstate to attend a School Sport Australia Championship. Students attending an ACT hosted Championship are not eligible.
• To be considered, each application must be endorsed and signed by the student’s Principal. This will include a confirmation of enrolment status, attendance and endorsement for each applicant.
• To be eligible to apply, the applicant must be able to demonstrate financial need by providing evidence, of a minimum of ONE, of the listed items.
• In its inaugural year, the fund will support 25 Scholarships of $500 each.
• Assessment of applications and the allocation of funds are to be spread across the year so students from all 17 sports have fair access to assistance.

Representation for ACT teams will be sent out when trials are taking place. Alternatively, please follow the SSACT Facebook Page or check their website https://schoolsportact.org.au/.
