7-10 Athletics Carnival information

The Dominic College Inter-House Athletics Carnival is to be held on Tuesday 10 April at the Domain Athletics Centre. This is a normal school day and an important part of your child’s school life. We encourage full participation and ask for your assistance in promoting this event as a positive way to participate in the life of the College. Students are required to wear full sports uniform to and from the Domain but are encouraged to wear HOUSE COLOURS at the carnival.

TRANSPORT TO & FROM THE DOMAIN:

Students can make their own way to the Domain if they wish. They must arrive at the Domain by 8:45am. Alternatively, students can catch buses provided from Dominic to the Domain. Buses will depart Dominic from 8:15am (no later than 8:30am). All students are expected to travel back to school at the conclusion of the carnival. Buses will leave the Domain at approximately 2:40pm and will arrive at Dominic in time for the normal afternoon buses.

On arrival at the Domain, students need to immediately report to their House area and Pastoral Teacher to have their attendance recorded.
