Sport News
We have received information from the Wollongong Catholic Education Office that ALL Term 2 and Term 3 Diocesan Sporting Trials, Carnivals and Gala Days have been cancelled on advice from CEDoW leadership and current government advice and restrictions. This includes Cross Country, Soccer, Athletics, Hockey, Volleyball, Athletics and Netball.
Events from mid August 2020 are still pending and it is hoped that easing restrictions will allow a restart of the Diocesan sports program.
