Interschool soccer carnival
Last Friday our students represented Curtin Primary at the interschool soccer carnival held at Manning Primary. This event saw many enjoying their first experience at an interschool carnival. Our students had a number of weeks of soccer training with Alister from Football West in the lead up to the carnival and performed very well on the day. We are especially proud of the way our students carried themselves resulting in them receiving compliments on their sportsmanship and behaviour.
Final results:
Girls placed 5th
Boys placed 4th
Congratulations Curtin teams who were presented with the Meritorious Shield.

On the track – fitness and running
Following on from the success of our students at their recent interschool adventure, we are looking to set up an “On Track Tuesday”. Students who are keen to improve their fitness levels and running endurance will have the opportunity to participate, so get behind your children and encourage them to get involved.
Mr Henderson (WAFL -WCE Eagles player) is keen to assist our students in this area and will be commencing “On the Track” Tuesday 14th, 21st & 28th June 8.20 – 8.50am. Those students wishing to participate must come wearing joggers, bring a water bottle and be prepared to run!
