Competitive Sport News

Thank you to all students and parents for their support of our competitive sport programs in Term 1. Despite the challenges that have been presented this term, it has been fantastic to see students being able to connect and enjoy a range of sporting opportunities. Organisation for most of our Term 2 competitive sports has taken place now, with students advised of their teams and information sent home to parents. If you have any questions regarding your student’s participation in Term 2 competitive sports, please don’t hesitate to contact me at cwestmcinnes@pacluth.qld.edu.au.
