Holy Trinity is again offering the Safe Cycle Program which is an initiative by the Physical Activity Foundation, with the support of the ACT Government, to implement a bicycle awareness and safety program into schools.
The Safe Cycle Program will be undertaken on Wednesdays. Years 5/6 weeks 3, 5, 7 and 9 of Term 3. Year 3/4 will run during Term 4 on Wednesdays of weeks 1,3, 5 and 7. The Bike Program will be implemented in Physical Education lessons and other curriculum areas. This program provides all students the opportunity to develop, demonstrate and practise correct bike handling skills, simple maintenance awareness and also to engage in local riding excursions as part of Physical Education lessons.
Permission forms for 5/6 students have been sent out via Schoolzine and are due back by Friday 3rd August, end of week 2.
St Monica’s is delighted to host the 2018 Catholic Primary Schools Netball Carnival.
Venue: Tuggeranong Netball Association Courts, Were Street Calwell ACT 2905
Date: Saturday 20 October 2018
Registration Fees
A fee of $30 per competitor is required to enter the carnival. The registration fee includes a food voucher (a sausage sandwich, a fruit drink, a piece of fruit and a bag of chips) per competitor. If your child has any dietary requirements, please ensure you let the school know on the registration form for catering purposes. Competitors will also receive information to assist them and their team in participating for the day. Payment can be made via QKR or to the front office.
In the event that the safety of participants is perceived as being placed at an unacceptable risk or the grounds are closed due to wet weather, the event will be cancelled. If this occurs, it is not practical to reschedule or refund team registration fees.
Whilst there will be plenty of netball, there will also be other activities on the day to keep the young at heart entertained. For your convenience, there will also be food stalls selling a range of sweet and savoury items so remember to bring some cash along on the day.
There will be several water refill stations around the grounds on the day, though we recommend each child brings along plenty of water. It is also advisable to bring a hat and sunscreen as it could be a warm spring day.
St Monica’s Primary School community is looking forward to hosting this exciting event for the primary schools of the Archdiocese of Canberra and Goulburn. We hope to see many of our school communities at this fun-filled day.
