Congratulations to those who have been chosen in the final team for the 2014 Inters Swimming. We are really excited about the composition of the team. It is a strong one.
A couple of things you need to know;
1) You will notice that reserves have not been named on this list. They will be posted on Monday.
2) It is not unheard of for us to make errors. If you think there has been an error, please alert Mr. Mepham as soon as possible. Thursday morning is too late.
3) If you are ill or injured please let Mr. Mepham know via email ASAP (mepham.dion@trinity.wa.edu.au ).
4) If you are named, whether swimming or reserve, you are expected to attend. It’s a real honour to represent TC.
5) For all details about the day, please refer to the Inters Letter posted last week.
Let’s have a great night.

 

Thurs 13 March

Dear Swimmers & Parents,

Well, we are reaching the pointy end of the swimming season. Only two more weeks until the interschool swimming carnival and like previous years, we would like to give our 2014 TC Swim team a healthy send off.

It’s a long held tradition at TC that the swimming parents put on lunch for our swimmers, so on Thursday 13 March, can you please bring your dish of food to the rowing kitchen (at the back of the school – Nelson Avenue) by 10.30 so we can start preparing. Please ensure your dish is labelled so we can return it to you easily, but if you can, our preferred option is if you send your lunch contribution in a disposable plate / dish would be great.

Your nominated dish is as follows:

Year 12 – prepared salad (garden, coleslaw, potato etc)

Year 11 – Fruit (please leave whole and we will plate it up in the kitchen)

Year 10 – prepared salad (garden, coleslaw, potato etc)

Year 9 – Pre-cooked Pasta / rice (lasagne, penne, fried rice, sushi etc)

Year 8 – Pre-cooked Pasta / rice (lasagne, penne, fried rice, sushi etc)

Year 7 – Pre-cooked Pasta / rice (lasagne, penne, fried rice etc)

NOTE: we do have boys with food allergies ie nuts, dairy etc, so if you have put anything in your dish which may cause a reaction, please label it accordingly.

We will need parent volunteers on the day of the 13th to help with set up, food preparation, serving lunch and clean up. Many hands make light work so if you can please let us know either via email (j.braut@importedceramic.com.au) or phone (0412 183 420) that would be greatly appreciated. You will be need from 10:00 – 2:30 (at the latest).

On the day of the interschool, we also provide the boys with a snack pack (muffin, banana, juice box) which will cost $5.00 per child. Many of you have already paid that with your breakfast monies, but if you have not, please can you pay Mel Ng at breakfast before or on Monday 10 March (Mel will be at Quads if you wish to pay her there).

We look forward to seeing you there and thank you all for your support through the Term 4 2013 & Term 1 2014, our boys really do appreciate it.

Regards,

Josie Braut

It has a been a Trinity tradition to put on lunch for our swim team prior to them heading off to Challenge Stadium and this year is no different. If your child is selected to represent the school at the interschool carnival, then you will need to provide a dish. Your year group has been allocated the following food / dish:

Year 12 – prepared salad (garden, coleslaw, potato etc)

Year 11 – Fruit (please leave whole and we will plate it up in the kitchen)

Year 10 – prepared salad (garden, coleslaw, potato etc)

Year 9 – Pre-cooked Pasta / rice (lasagne, penne, fried rice, sushi etc)

Year 8 – Pre-cooked Pasta / rice (lasagne, penne, fried rice, sushi etc)

Year 7 – Pre-cooked Pasta / rice (lasagne, penne, fried rice etc)

More information will be provided soon, so check those bags and the TC swim website. Parent helpers will be needed on the day to help with set up, preparation, serving food and clean up so if you can be there, please put it in your diary.

Thank you for your assistance and support of our boys, they do appreciate it.
