Outing on 6 Sept! +PESS+Outing

Hellloo!

Watching the Nation Cup match on 31st Aug has been cancelled as there are not enough people able to make it on that day. However, you are strongly encouraged to go to watch the matches on that day, on your own time. :)

As we all know, 6 Sept is the day whereby our U14 PESS team will be playing from 7.45am to 5pm. It's also the same day as the Nation Cup matches Coach recommended for us to watch.

Therefore... 6 Sept shall be our netball outing day. :D We'll be going to support our lovely Y1 juniors at PESS at 7.45am onwards. Those who are interested to watch the Nation Cups can go ahead, after coming to support the juniors :D

Here are the timings for the PESS matches (at Toa Payoh Sports Hall) on 6 Sept:
-The first match (semi finals) is from 1230pm to 3pm.
-The second match (finals) is from 3pm to 5pm.

Except for year 1s, please tell your level reps which match you can make it as soon as possible. If you can go for both, even better :D


Regardless of whether you're still at NIE playing matches/rooting for our U14 team or at Toa Payoh Sports Hall watching PESS matches, both events end at 5pm. As such, we are planning to go for dinner together afterwards :) The location is still not confirmed yet, but it is likely to be somewhere in between the two places :D NIE is somewhere in Jurong West/Boon Lay. Do you have any suggestions? Please tell your level rep if you do too. :)

Thanks all! :)

To Michelle:

New system of attendance-taking

Hi all!

With effect from this week onwards, whenever you are unable to come for training, please inform your level reps (instead of directly to Hanisah)!

Level reps

Year 1: Shi Ni
Year 2: Christine
Year 3: Hanisah
Year 4: Sharlene
Year 5 + 6: Celine

Level reps, please report to Hanisah after each training with regards to the attendance of everyone in your level. :)


To refresh your memory...


Below are valid & invalid reasons for missing training:

Valid reasons:

1. School function/event (representing school in competition etc.)
   - You must produce written permission from your teacher-in-charge to Ms Chen/ Ms Tong.
   
2. Sick
   - You must produce a Medical Certificate and/or parents' letter.
3. Church Service
   - It must be only Church service and not anything else (e.g. cell group meeting/church outing)
4. Fasting
   - Muslims during the Ramadan fasting month will be granted permission for early dismissal.

(Should the "must" not be fulfilled, the reason will unfortunately be rendered invalid.)


Invalid reasons:
Everything else :D
(Common invalid reasons: gotta study for test the next day, tuition, music lesson, class outing)

If you still wish to skip training based on an invalid reason, you will be marked as absent without valid reason. One of the teachers will be having a "tea session" with you that happens..!


Now that trainings have been fixed for B' and C' Div, we expect full attendance from respective members from now on. We also expect everyone to schedule their personal commitments around the current fixed training times.


- Passion for netball!
Let's strive for perfect attendance,
so that we can move forward as greatly as possible as a whole team. :)


Thank you all for your cooperation! :D

Friendly Games

Dear Bionics,

We would be shifting our friendly game with Tanglin Secondary School to Term4Week1 to coincide with the upcoming Sports and Healthy Lifestyle Week.

This would give us more opportunities to prepare for the upcoming PESS Carnival as well.

Don't let the passion for the game die down kays!
