Many thanks to the parents who have indicated that they can coach teams. I will be in touch soon to confirm with you what teams we require you for. However, we will require more parents to volunteer, otherwise, we may not be able to enter teams. We need:
- 2 or 3 Soccer coaches (across all grades)
- 2 Netball coaches (across all grades)
- 1 Oz Tag coach (Year 3 and 4)
Permission notes will come out for these days in due course with further information and payment information. Please note as like in previous years, all students will be required to be transported to venues by parents or carers. We will provide the appropriate amount of staff to help with supervision and support on these days.
