Fortnightly update

Government Guidelines and Impact on Sport

In alignment with the most recent updates regarding the Stay at Home orders for Greater Sydney and some NSW regions, as well as NSW Health orders, all sport training, competition and activities have been suspended until further notice.

The Sport Department will keep the Loreto Normanhurst Community updated as often as practicable about return to sport, training, and competitions based on government advice and advice from the Loreto Normanhurst Leadership Team.

Loreto Normanhurst Online Health and Wellbeing Program

A reminder to engage with the Sport Department's Online Health and Wellbeing Program for Primary and Secondary School Students for Term 3!

The program aims to assist all students to remain healthy and active during the time of remote learning by providing a variety of opportunities and resources. This holistic program will encourage wellbeing in the areas of physical, mental, and emotional health; and provides a great opportunity for you and for your household to get involved. We encourage you to attempt as many of the activities/workouts each day as possible, keep the Department updated on your progress and send through any feedback that you may have.

The program can be accessed via the Sport Department Canvas Page or via the following link.
