School Sport - Term 2

The restrictions not to leave the College grounds for sport are still in place meaning that both Year 7/8 and 9/10 sport has had to be altered. Attached to this week's Newsletter are the new timetables for each group. All groups will participate in a range of sports and challenge activities in a House Point based system.

Should restrictions be lifted for Term 3, Year 7 and 8 will complete the Term 2 sport roster during Term 3 and Term 4, ensuring all Year 7’s have the chance to participate in Aquatics, Golf, Tennis and Beach Games. Year 8 girls and boys will still complete their OSSA in Term 4 should restrictions be lifted by then.

Year 9 and 10 sport selections made in Term 1 for Term 2 sport will roll over to Term 3. Payments for these sports have not yet been processed and will not happen until the end of this term. If you have any issues with payment for Term 3 sport, please contact the Business Manager, Traci Jones directly. Those students who have not yet handed in their sport notes need to do so immediately or go to the Palace to collect a new one.

We would like to take this opportunity to remind you that where possible, our preferred method of payment is BPAY. Contactless payment is especially pertinent in the current climate of COVID-19. Thank you for your cooperation.

College Cross Country

Due to the circumstances that presented at the end of Term 1, we were unable to run the College Cross Country. However, we have now been granted permission to hold the Cross Country for Year 7 - 10  as our track does not come into contact with the general public. This means Year 7 and 8 students will participate in the Cross Country on Wednesday 27 May (Week 5) during period 5 and 6 sport. Year 9 and 10 will participate the following day on Thursday 28 May, also in period 5 and 6.

Students will need to bring their hat and a drink bottle on the day. Sunscreen will be available in the hall and around the track. Students are encouraged to bring their plain house T-shirt to school to change into at lunch time to run in. Anyone who wears their house t-shirt will receive an extra 5 points for their house. As this is a modified event, students will be running in year and gender groups, not age groups. 

Year 7 and 8 are to complete the 3km track while 9 and 10 will run the 4km track. Students will be running for House points. Students who finish top 10 in their Year group will receive significant bonus points, while those that finish within 22min for year 7/8 and 33min for 9/10 will receive 2 house points. A map of the course is attached to the Newsletter and has been placed around the school so students have plenty of time to familiarise themselves with their track.

At the conclusion of the event on each day, students will be offered a water icy pole. If you do not want your child to receive an icy pole, please email Hunter Flanders with your child’s name, homeroom and house to Hunter Flanders by close of business Tuesday 26 May.

As restrictions are still in place for adults, parents are kindly asked not to attend.

In years gone by, the whole school competed in the Cross Country, so having the Year 9 and 10’s participate this year is a positive community move.

Representative Sport

At this stage all Term 2 sports, Diocesan and CCC, have been cancelled. This, in turn, impacts Term 3 sports such as Athletics. Currently, there has been no judgement made on whether the Diocesan and CCC Athletics carnival will proceed but a ruling is expected over the next couple of weeks. Please regularly check the Diocese of Lismore Sport website as well as the CSNSW website for all CCC sport updates.
