Hutchins Athletics Carnival
Monday 6th August
Dear Parent/Guardian,
On Tueday 06 August, your son will be competing in the Inter-House Athletics Carnival at the Domain Athletics Centre. This year the Middle and Senior Schools have combined to provide more interaction and a stronger affiliation within house groups, between the two campuses.
Students are to make their own transport arrangements to the DAC and arrive between 8:30am and 8:45am where attendance will be taken in house groups. There will be approximately 600 students participating, making it logistically impossible to transport all students to and from the DAC. There will however be some buses provided for students that require a connecting bus from the Hutchins School Campus and mentors will be making a list of all students.
Please note that road works are taking place on the Domain and there is limited access at the regular drop off point for the athletics track. The closest drop off points will be the TCA ground (South) or Crossroads (North).
