Sports Team Coaching 2025-26

Good morning,

I wanted to take the opportunity to thank all the coaches who have enriched our year in Sports Teams with their time, passion and commitment to supporting our students athletes to develop individually and collaboratively.

As we review the year we start to plan for the next. Please take a moment to think or come and talk to me if you have an interest in joining as a coach in the sports team programme for 2025-26. We are always looking to develop our programme and provide opportunities for growth outside of the classroom.

Next steps are to connect with me or Ms Vicki to express or discuss an interest you might have. If you are already a coach, please indicate if you would like to continue or possibly try something else next year.

Grade 4 & 5 Students

Are you always talking about books with your friends? Bursting with wanting to share YOUR favorite book or series? Join me in the small group room behind the Reading Cave during lunch on Wednesday so we can share some ideas about inspiring other students. Bring your lunch…you should still have time to play after the meeting!

Grade 4 & 5 teachers, please share with your class.
