It’s been a long time coming, well it definitely has felt like it, however, things will start to look a bit more normal for our kids in term 3. The NSW government has announced that kids will be returning to sports activities in term 3. This, of course, makes sense as out of school sport has also been given the green light around the same time.
Sarah Mitchell, The Minister for Education and Early Childhood Learning said:
“School sport is a vital part of the curriculum and our communities, providing the right balance to academic activities and helping to maintain the health and wellbeing of students,”
School camps and the kid’s yearly excursions which they love so much are still under review though, as well as any on-site parent events.
