Thanet Passport Update - 7

Dear Colleagues

This is the final Update of the term - so Merry Christmas to all our readers!!

Y1-6 KEY STEPS GYMNASTICS DEVELOPMENT FESTIVAL

This was due to take place on 14th January 2020 at The Ursuline. As the Key Steps Gymnastics is no longer a KSG qualifier our SGO has decided that this event is surplus to requirements. However, the event on Tuesday 31st March 2020 will still take place to decide the Thanet Champions.

Y5/6 TABLE TENNIS TOURNAMENT

This event will take place at Dane Court on Friday 17th January 2020, 4-5.30pm. There is no gender restriction with teams of 4 required. Due to the number of tables there are only 8 places available. If you wish to enter please email me at garybcrees@gmail.com , but please note that entries will not be accepted until 7.30am on Thursday 5th December 2019. Places will then be allocated on a first come first served basis. The closing date for entries is midnight on Monday 9th December 2019.

Y5/6 BADMINTON TOURNAMENT

Attached is the entry form and details for the Year 5/6 Badminton Tournament at The Ursuline on Tuesday 21st January 2020, 4-6pm.

Y5/6 HANDBALL TOURNAMENT

AN EARLY CHRISTMAS PRESENT

Following on from the success of last season's initiative, I am delighted to announce that thanks to our partnership with Margate FC every single child in every single Passport school is once again being offered the chance to attend an Isthmian League Premier Division game at Hartsdown Park FREE OF CHARGE! The offer includes 1 adult and 2 children for the game on 21st December v Leatherhead.

There are no strings attached to this offer and there is obviously no compulsion to take part in this scheme if you do not wish to do so. All you need to do is locate the relevant page for your school on the attached document. The tickets have your school logo on them and are arranged (more or less) in alphabetical order with 3 tickets per page. You can then print off as many copies of that page as are needed for the number of pupils in your school. That way Margate FC will be able to monitor the take up from each school. Obviously there is the cost of printing/photocopying the tickets, as well as the time needed to cut the tickets up for distribution to each family, but hopefully this is not too burdensome. School staff are also welcome to attend with their own children.

If you have any questions please contact Charlotte Richardson at the club, charlottecrichardson@gmail.com
