Sports news from Mr Lee
Term 2 Focus
As we come to the end of the term, I would just like to thank the students, parents and staff for their support with sport. As we enter Term 2 we are turning our attention towards winter sports such as AFL, soccer, netball and rugby. This is in preparation for the 24th of June where students from Years 4-6 will take part in the Winter Lightning Carnival at HBF Arena.
Cross Country
We must apologise to Isla G and Aaliyah P whose names were confused at the finish line for the Pre-Primary girls event. We decided to reprint the winners of the school cross country and thank the families for their understanding. If you would like to compete in more cross country carnivals, please contact the Joondalup Little Athletics Centre on 0424 068 141, via e-mail admin@jlac.org.au or by visiting their website at http://www.jlac.org.au/.
Congratulations to our winners in each event.

Sporting Clubs in the City of Joondalup
Living in the City of Joondalup, you are lucky as there is a host of sports available that are not available elsewhere. For a list of sporting clubs close to you, please visit the following
https://www.joondalup.wa.gov.au/category/sporting-clubs
You will find sporting clubs that you or your child can join and that run within the City of Joondalup. It has many sporting codes however if there is a particular sport you are interested in and don’t see it on the list, e-mail Robert.Lee2@education.wa.edu.au and I will find what is available close to you. This can be anything from Quidditch to Dodgeball. Alternatively, I can also point you towards clubs that have a good relationship with the school. For example, the Joondalup Jaguars Netball club is where the majority of our students play and familiar faces may help your child settle into the sport. https://njnc.com.au/
Grants for Kids Playing Sport
KidSport is being administered by the City in partnership with the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries making it possible for more Western Australian children to participate in community sport and recreation. Sport and recreation builds stronger, healthier, happier and safer communities. Eligible families can receive subsidies of up to $150.00 for each child to go towards local club registration fees.
