High Jump and House Relays

We are just waiting for fine weather and a dry oval combination to complete High Jump and House Relays. Hopefully this will be possible before the end of term.

I will notify students as soon as the events are scheduled. Once all events are completed, we will be able to calculate Age Champions and tally House Points.

Thank you for your patience.

GPCC Sport Teams

We are looking forward to sending our teams to a number of Gala Days and competitions in Primary again this year.

Students will have a chance to trial for certain school teams over the coming terms and will need to keep a close eye on the notices, teacher announcements in class and listen out for Assembly announcements for when trials will be held.

The protocol for team selection link: GPCC_PRIMARY_REPRESENTATIVE_SPORT_TEAM_SELECTION_PROCESS.pdf

  • Teams have at least 2-3 trials before final selection.
  • Unfortunately, it is simply not possible for all children who trial to be included in final teams. It is not uncommon for 40 students to trial for a team that only has 10 spots available.
  • Once teams have been chose, they will aim to have at least one training session each week before a competition.

Individual Sport Trials for Primary CSSA and CIS Teams (NOT GPCC teams)

These trials are not for GPCC school teams that we trial for here at school (as mentioned above). The CSSA or CIS trials are usually held in Sydney and students will be trialling against students from either other Christian Schools (CSSA) or other Independent Schools (CIS) and are usually recommended for those students that compete at a representative level.

Please email Mr McSwan before these Nomination dates if your child (YEARS 5 AND 6 ONLY) would like to be considered. Students need to be currently playing in the sport at a very high level and have several years' experience (preferably at a Representative level): Parents are required to transports students to and from these trials.

CSSA and CIS Sport trial dates: Please note these are not for GPCC school teams.
