West Melton School Y4-8 Sports 2018 Welcome everyone, Throughout the year, the students are able to participate in a huge and varied sporting programme. Each term we ask for parent help to run these events. Without your support some of these events would not be able to go ahead. They are usually simple jobs of keeping an eye on the students, transporting if required or helping set up the event. It is also a great way of meeting other parents and watching your child s progress. So, if you have an hour or two spare, are a parent/caregiver, uncle, aunt or grandparent please consider ticking the box next time the yellow sporting notice comes home. You will find our EOTC Parental Help form on our school website. You will only be required to fill out the form once this year Please note only Y5-8 students can qualify for zones and our school championship cups. Transport Transport to sporting events will be by bus if at all possible this year. This usually averages between $8 - $15 per student. Sport Uniforms Upon your child being fortunate enough to be selected for zones, they will be required to wear the West Melton School sport uniform. This is owned by the PTA and charged out at a flat rate of $5. This covers jacket, top & shorts. All uniforms need to be returned in the condition they were supplied ie: cleaned and dry. Sport Notices are found on our school website under Our School/ Newsletters & Notices as well as looking on our school calendar. Please refer to our website, as dates may be subject to change. It will also have links to permission forms, information sheets, maps and programmes.
We have endeavoured to provide key sporting dates well in advance, so you can diary these dates in your calendar now! We hope you find this supportive and useful. We look forward to seeing you throughout the year at our sporting events, Thank you West Melton School Sports rita.spadoni@westmelton.school.nz TERM ONE Event Date Time Venue Parental Help Required Transport Required Y4-8 Duathlon Monday 12 February (pp Mon 19 Feb) 9.30am - 3.00pm West Melton School Yes Mainland Girls Futsal Y4-6 Friday 16 February 1.20-3pm West Melton School Y5-8 Competitive Monday 26 February (pp Wed 28 Feb) 9.30am - 12.30pm West Melton School Yes Weet-Bix TRYathlon Sunday 25 February All Day Jellie Park Y4-8 NON- Competitive Duathlon Tuesday 27 February 10am - 12.30pm West Melton School Yes Wednesday 7 March 10am Motukarara Domain Yes Car Wednesday 14 March 9am Southbridge Pools Yes Bus
