Junior Hockey Information 2024

Thursday 22 August

Please click the link for Hockey registration information - Hookin2Hockey_ComeTry_CircularHead_.pdf

The Smithton Hockey Club are excited to announce that with assistance from Aurora sponsorship this year’s junior hockey rosters will be provided at no cost.

All children are still required to register for insurance purposes. This can be done by scanning the QR code on the flyer.

If you require assistance, please stop in at the office and we can help.

Just a reminder that if your child wishes to participate in the Hockey roster to please send the expression of interest forms back that came home last week. This will give us an idea on numbers to determine if we will have an ECPS team or if children will be playing in a mixed “All Stars” team.

Thank-you :)

A reminder that we have Cross-Country at Redpa tomorrow. The event will start at 10am with a track familiarisation; the first race will begin around 10:30am.
Students need to wear school uniform and bring running shoes, snacks and lots to drink. If your child has not order lunch, they will need a packed lunch
They also need to bring a full change of clothes, including shoes and a plastic bag for wet clothes. The track can be a very muddy. We also suggest a towel.
Some rain is likely, so a coat would be a good idea while spectating.
In the event of postponement, we will advise via Seesaw, Schoolzine and Facebook.
Hope to see you there.

Walk Safely to School Day

Thursday 2 May

Next week is Road Safety Awareness Week.

We currently have several children who walk to school each day. They would love some company.

So next Thursday, 9th May some of our staff will be joining them. We would love other children and their families to join us too.

We will be gathering opposite the school at 8:00am. We will then walk to the start of Poilinna Road to collect students from there. After that we will head back to the shop, before heading to school.

This would be a great chance for kids who come by car to school, to start their day with extra fresh air, exercise and time to connect with others.
