The Early Years Swimming Carnival will be held on Friday 29 November at the Dalby Aquatic Centre. Students will travel on the College Coach leaving at 8.50am. Students will be back at school at 12.30pm. Swim shirts are optional for all races. Students may wear their house colours on the day. Nominations have now closed. Further information will be emailed to all families next week.
St Columban’s Caboolture Sports Tour
On the afternoon of Tuesday 3 December, St Columban’s Caboolture will be traveling through Dalby after visiting St John’s Roma. They have a Year 7/8 touring party of students who will play against the College in Volleyball, Touch Football and Netball.
Return of Sporting Uniforms
As the end of the year is fast approaching, I am making an urgent request for the return of any sporting uniforms that may be still outstanding. Please return them ASAP. Replacement bills will be issued to students with uniforms not returned. This includes Volleyball Shirts, Touch Football Shirts and Singlets, Rugby Sevens Jerseys and Netball Dresses.
