Good afternoon Dayboro families.

My name is Clare Marks and I work on Mondays and Tuesdays teaching Health and Physical Education to all students. If you have any queries or need to pass on information please contact me on cxmar5@eq.edu.au.

District Trials

Below is a copy of a letter regarding district trials which was emailed out yesterday to all parents with children in years 4-6. If you have highly capable children in a certain sport please ensure you read this.  Particularly in regard to cricket trials on Tuesday.

Injuries

Unfortunately injuries are a part of life. However, when children arrive in PE with bandages or casts on I need to know what, if any, physical activity they are allowed to participate in. Some parents and some Doctors have higher tolerances than others. Some students use a bandaid as a reason not to participate, other students will try to take a sling off and play anyway! If your child has an injury that affects their participation in PE please let me know. It makes my job much easier when I don’t have to guess.

Suitable clothing – Year P-2 have PE on Monday, yr 3-6 have it on Tuesday. Please ensure your child (particularly girls) are wearing clothing that they not only have freedom of movement in, but that they also feel socially comfortable in. Shorts and skorts are far better than dresses on PE days.
