Monday 05/06/2023 – Afterschool Squad Training starts and finishes earlier due to Parent Teacher Interviews
Hi all,
As the school day finishes earlier at 2pm on Monday 05/06/2023 due to Parent Teacher Interviews, Squad Training will start earlier at 2:30pm and will run for 2 hours until 4:30pm.
Sprints training for Development Fencers is still running as per normal scheduled training time. I do not run the Sprints program so have no control over when the training starts and finishes.
Please let me know if there are any issues.
Cheers,

Attention all Squad Fencers – NSWFA Membership Details
Thank you to the Squad Fencers who have already provided me with their NSWFA membership details. For those who have yet to complete this task (I am addressing the year 12s and seniors in particular as they may have been distracted from this task during the exam period last term):
Please make sure you pay for the NSWFA ‘Junior Participative’ membership ASAP ($50) as I will need your membership number when I register fencers for NSWFA individual and team competitions.
You can register for the membership here:
https://nswfencing.org.au/fencers/#1
Once you have done so, please complete this Google Form so I can collect all Squad Fencers information for NSWFA competitions in one place:
https://forms.gle/KkyizZcm2gevP9US9
The Senior Roberta Nutt Competition is on this Saturday so I will need to collect your details ASAP and by Wednesday 9am at the latest.
Removal from the competition and burpees may apply for those who fail to comply.
Cheers,
Mr Dat Huynh
