External Sport Term 3

With the new COVID restrictions for schools, external sport for term 3 will be a game of wait-and-see. At this stage we are allowed to participate in events that are either finals or pathways sports depending on the teacher's impact behind at school. The main concern is with teacher shortages for a variety of reasons, and having no-one left to cover classes at school. Each event will be assessed independently.

NSWPSSA Cross country

Congratulations to Sophie Sannazzro For representing SHC in the all state cross country on Friday. It is an amazing achievement. A special mention to Sacha McLeod who also qualified but due to an injury was unable to compete. 

CG Athletics - Canberra

This event will go ahead as scheduled, please remember to register your child at https://csnsw.sport/. If you are unsure of how to register please contact me and I will be happy to assist. Notes went home last term with those students who qualified.

Weekly Sport

Wednesday, Year 7 and 8 students received their Sport groups for the next 4 weeks. An email went to the students and a note sent home detailing their choices. If there is a payment required to participate, please complete the note and hand in to the front office with any money owing, as soon as possible. If no payment is required the note does not need to be returned. The Year 7 and 8 students will be participating in Mutlisports at the Stadium, Multisports at school, Rugby League and Walking/Orienteering activities.

During our normal weekly sport time, Year 9 will be participating in Wellbeing programs based on the Choicez Media resources ‘Beautiful’ and ‘The Men We Need’. Year 10 will be studying for their First Aid certificate to be assessed in week 6. Normal sport will resume at the completion of these opportunities.

Futsal

Congratulations to the U14s Girls Futsal team who competed in the State Championships in Sydney on Wednesday 27 July at Hawksbury. They all played extremely well and represented our school in an exceptional manner. The girls competed against strong competition and played 5 games during the day and left with one win. 

A special thank you to the parents that assisted in transportation and coordinating the girls on the day. 

Well done to Zara Bodycott, Matilda Sannazzaro, Sophie Sannazzaro, Emily Dickinson, Ashely Peacey, Lily Peacey and Laila Ismay.
