NEW SPORTS EQUIPMENT
During Term 2 and Term 3, St. Ita's received a portion of funding from the 'Sporting Schools' Initiative. The money has been used on a variety of different equipment such as sofcrosse sticks and balls, footballs, soccer balls & tennis balls. Mr Carroll also invested in much needed new High Jump stands/uprights for our Athletics program. In PE, the Grade 5/6s are currently learning Sofcrosse and the Juniors are preparing for their in-house Athletics carnival.
