We have the extracurricular activities (ECA’s) for term two organised and ready for students to sign up. For Term two, ECA’s will be held on Mondays and Tuesdays only. The school bus will leave at 4pm on Mondays to allow bus students the chance to participate.
Term two ECA’s will run for 11 weeks and finish before the last week of term. Students can select any activity they wish but their are limits that apply so first in first served. Students can change their ECA only during the first week of ECA’s.
All ECA’s start from Monday 12 January.
The full list of activities are:

During this ECA students will have the unique opportunity to learn organisation, leadership and teamwork skills while sharing their ideas and planning activities for the school.
