St. Clare’s School Swimming Program and Carnival

We have two sessions of school swimming left, this week and next, and then our carnival takes place in Week 8 on Friday 29^th November.

The program for our swimming carnival is attached to this newsletter.  Please note that times are approximate as it is very difficult to put a definitive time-line in place in a school carnival setting.

We really appreciate parent help throughout the day!  If you can assist in the tuckshop please email mvipiana@cns.catholic.edu.au or if you can assist by time-keeping please email cjenkins@cns.catholic.edu.au
