TENNIS LESSONS:

For private tennis lessons, please find the BVTS Micklefield Tennis Academy information as well as holiday clinic info in the Adana App under Documentation, Sport/Extra-murals.  We are wanting one coaching style for our girls so we can build our teams to be strong and competitive. 

WINTER SPORT PROGRAMME

Please see the Edana App under Documents, Sport/Extra-Murals for the letter with all the winter sports information and dates..  In order for the programme to run smoothly and efficiently, please follow the info on the letter.  There are a lot of logistics and many outside coaches so we need to be ready to start with netball for Grade 3 – 7 on Wednesday, 19 April and hockey for Grade 3 -7 on Thursday, 20 April.

Please note that the hockey practice for Grade 4 – 7 that was scheduled for the first day back of term, Tuesday, 18 April will not take place.  The first hockey practice will be on Thursday, 20 April.  The Grade 3 hockey practice on Tuesday, 18 April will go ahead as it is during school time.

We are still in need of 3 Parents to marshal for the Grade 3- 7 Cross Country on Wednesday’s from 12:45 to 13:30. Please contact Sandi Blackbeard if you are able to assist.  We will still go ahead with this training, but the safety of our pupils will be at risk.

WINTER SPORT HOLIDAY CLINICS

Please see the Edana App under Sport/Extra-Murals for hockey and netball holiday clinics.
