College Sport at Mount Carmel

    Sport Permission Notes

    This week all students in Years 8 - 11 received their sport permission note. It is essential that this note is returned by Monday 8 February. This note details that students may be required to travel to venues off-site for sport throughout the year. Should your child’s medical conditions/injury status change throughout the year it is important that the College is notified. 

    Bus Travel Week 3 - Tuesday 9 February 

    Next week we will commence bus travel for College sport. All students and staff MUST wear a face mask when travelling on the bus to sport. 

    Communication regarding sport 

    Students are reminded to continue checking the Compass dashboard for key information relating to sport during 2021. Key information will also be communicated to parents via the College Newsletter and notes sent home. Information will also be provided to staff who will communicate key messages with students during Pastoral Care in the morning.

    MISA Sport 

    This week MISA trials were conducted for various sporting teams. All teams have been shortlisted. The students that have been shortlisted will attend a second phase of trial next week during Tuesday sport. Congratulations to these students. I would like to thank all students for their involvement and participation in the MISA trials. There were incredibly high numbers at each trial which made for a very tough selection from our coaches. 

    Term 1 MISA Phase II Trials will be held during 3 Tuesday Sport 1:05pm- 2:45pm.
