Girls Hockey Club

4th Oct 2017

The following note was sent home with all P5 to P7 girls this afternoon.

From next Monday, 9th October, we will be able to offer an after-school hockey club for girls in Key Stage 2. The club will be led by Frankie Brown, the junior co-ordinator of Ards Ladies Hockey Club.

Sessions will be held in school and run from 3pm until 4pm and cost £2 per session. This cost will allow us to cover coaching costs and contribute towards the purchase of goalkeeping equipment with a view to entering a team in the local tournaments after Christmas.

Places are limited to 20 pupils at this time with priority given to older pupils. Any pupils not receiving a place will be added to a waiting list with any late returns added to this list.

If there is significant demand, we will look at expanding the numbers that can attend as well as offering hockey to the boys.
I appreciate it is short notice but can I ask that permission notes are returned tomorrow, Thursday 5th October. Confirmation notes will be sent home tomorrow afternoon with all pupils offered a place.

Pupils must wear a gum shield if they wish to attend the afterschool club. A supply of gum shields priced at £3 will be available to purchase from the office on Friday. Please indicate below if you wish to purchase one.

Pupils are also encouraged to wear shin pads and appropriate clothing as sessions will be held outdoors. Sticks are available in school to borrow however pupils are welcome to bring their own should they wish to do so.

Sessions will run on the following dates:
9th October, 16th October, 13th November, 20th November, 27th November, 4th December and possible 11th December but this final date is tbc.

Please sign and return the note below to the class teacher tomorrow morning.
