Good afternoon,
Please find below some important information and key dates for the coming academic year.
Physical Education lessons will start on Thursday 15th August. For the first six weeks of lessons all students will be swimming during their P.E. lessons. Those students in 7B, 7S and 8S will need to bring their kit Thursday.
It is important that during the blocks of swimming students bring in BOTH their swimming kit and their normal P.E. kit to lessons. If students are unwell or injured they will still be expected to wear their P.E. kit during lessons.
House Swimming Gala – Week commencing Monday 23rd September
The House Swimming Galas will be held in school this year. In order to encourage participation and allow those students who are weaker swimmers to compete with confidence, we have made the decision to host the events in our 25m pool rather than the 50m public pool at Tsing Yi or Tung Chung. This format will also, hopefully, allow students to feel more involved and support their house from the poolside. Students will also only be removed from lessons for half a day on their day of competition. Further details on timings and specific dates will be published in the next couple of weeks.
Unfortunately, this will mean that parents are not able to attend any of the competitions due to the lack of space available.
House Sports Day – Wednesday 18th March
House Sports Day will be held at Shin Mun Valley Sports Ground this year on the date above. More details will follow in due course.
I am really looking forward to another busy and successful year in P.E. and Sport and thank you in advance for your ongoing support.
Kind regards,
Tom Lemon
Head of Secondary Physical Education and Sport
