Home / Special Announcements / Activity Selections – Term 2 2022

 

Activity-Afternoon-Selections-web

It’s time to start thinking about activity choices Term 2, 2022.

Thursday Activity selections are listed below. Students are able to log onto D2L and follow the Activity Afternoon link to make their selections in class next week.
Your child will get a chance to select 4 activities in order, some will be free, and others may incur a cost. Please keep in mind they may not be given their first couple of preferences, due to limited spaces in each activity. If not, enough interest is shown, some activities may not run. Students who do not make a selection will be placed into an activity based on availability.

Once student selections have been finalised, permission can be made through the school portal app, which must be completed before the activity starts in term 2, week 2 otherwise students will be placed on an activity based at the school. Please note, we will not be sending printed permission notes home. If you are unable to utilise the School Portal App, please contact WMYC for further assistance.

*Please consider price when making a decision – payment and permission forms are due by Friday 29th April.
Once you have picked your activity there will NOT be any changes throughout the term!

(Provided with option to expand)) Last year also had a number of students who enjoy building and customising their Gundam Mechs at school, with students bringing in their own kit models.
