Swans visit

Sydney Swans players Tyrone Leonardis, Dan Robinson and Toby Nankervis visited on February 9.

The players promoted AFL and a healthy lifestyle at an assembly, and also displayed some passing skills. 

Kiama Public School is again taking part in the AFL skills and drills clinics over the course of Term 1.

Trained coaches from AFL NSW will be running the clinics with supervision from Kiama Public teachers. 

Students in Kindergarten to year 6 will be participating. The clinics are part of the Games and Sports strand in the NSW PDHPE syllabus and cover essential learning of skills fundamental to the basic movements required to stay fit and healthy. 

It is a six-week program held on Fridays. 

Swimming carnival 2016

Primary students recently attended the Kiama Leisure Centre for the annual swimming carnival.

The school would like to thank the members of the Kiama community who gave their time to man stopwatches, judge lanes, support swimmers and generally assist in running the event. 

Congratulations to champion house Bass. Congratulations also to age champions Charlie Britten, Deakin Davidson, Max Shelley, Tayissa Boese, Jasmine Mole and Chloe Wallace. 

The District event is being held on February 17. 

PSSA sport

Kiama Public would like to congratulate Jordan Guevara and Sunny Ettridge on their selection in the Tongarra Boys’ basketball team.

The school also congratulates Cooper Harrison and Mathew Laughton on their selection in the Tongarra Boys’ cricket team.

Kiama Public School boys’ cricket trial

A total of 26 boys recently participated in the school cricket trials.

The standard of cricket was fantastic and the display of enthusiasm and teamwork demonstrated by the boys was great to see.

This made it a hard decision for the selectors to narrow the squad down to 12. However, the team has been announced and the school congratulates all 26 boys who turned up to the trials.

The team selected will play against Shellharbour PS in round one.
