In Term 1, we continued our After School Hockey Club for Years 1–3 and Years 4–6. After launching the programme for the first time last year, we were pleased to see massive growth across all our locations this year!
To wrap up the term, we hosted a 'Bring a Friend Day', and it was a huge success with over 20 extra kids joined us at Fraser Park for a fun-filled final session!
Our After School Hockey Club runs during Terms 1 and 4, while FunSticks takes over in Terms 2 and 3 – so there's always something happening for our junior players.
We can’t wait to get back into it later this year. See you then!
