Student/Parent News
In Term Two on Friday 29 April, students will participate in the Cross Country Carnival at St Matthew's Primary School.
In preparation for this event, class cohorts are going to begin training in Week 9 around our school site, on Tuesday and Thursday.
This year, each cohort is also going to participate in a friendly competition! The class with the most accumulated laps, within their age-appropriate course / distance, will win an extra sports lesson in Term 2 Week 3.
As such, can you please ensure your child comes to school on sports days (Tuesday / Thursday) with appropriate footwear for running, as well as their full sports uniform.
Permission notes for the Cross Country Carnival will be sent via Compass in Week 9. As always, we greatly appreciate parent helpers! Please indicate if you can help on the day on the permission form and forward to michelle.dempsey@cg.catholic.edu.au
Thank you for your continued support!
