Hi all,

I want to unreservedly apologise for the incorrect start time for the U13 Boys Foil Team School Championships communicated to our students on our website.

I had made the mistake when updating the SBHS Fencing calendar upon learning of the latest changes to the dates and start times made by NSWFA. In my haste, I incorrectly transferred the wrong start time for the U13 Boys Foil Team event and the error went unnoticed, leading to the mix-up and confusion on Saturday.

I was not able to attend the competition on Saturday but I know it must have been a frustrating experience to have to wait hours to start your competition. I will endeavour to be more vigilant with ensuring start times are accurately communicated so that this incident will not happen again.

My sincere apologies for the inconveniences caused and thank you for your understanding with this matter.

Hi all,

We will be holding the Fencing Supporters Meeting on Thursday 10/08/17 at 6:00pm in the Staff Common Room.

This is a great opportunity to reflect on another successful season and to start planning the End of Season Fencing Dinner.

I invite all interested parents and supporters to attend.

The Meeting Agenda can be found here.

Fencing Committee members are able to edit the Google Doc and add anything they wish to discuss at the meeting.

Please let me know if there are any issues or questions.

Cheers,

D. Huynh

Hi all,

This weekend we have two events running:

• U13 Foil Team School Championship
• U15 Foil Team Premiership

Fixtures are posted on the Results page.

Unfortunately, I will not be present as I’m on personal leave this weekend. Ms Lynnea Stuwart will be supervising and Coach Feng will also be assisting our boys on the day. I wish them all the best of luck in their bouts.

Hi all,

We were accidentally left off the Winter Sport photos timetable but have been slotted in at 11:10am tomorrow. All fencers please be at the basketball courts with full school uniform and blazers if you have one.

Apologies for the late notice and thanks for your cooperation.
