Congratulations T-Ball Team!
The
Girls Junior T-Ball team played in the PSSA grand final last Friday!
Unfortunately
we were not victorious (lost 18 - 10) but the girls were very excited with 2nd
place.
It
has been a great season which has seen the girls, most of who had never played
before, learn new skills and apply them during matches on a Friday. The girls should be
commended on their dedication and concentration during the games and at
training. It has been a pleasure to coach the team and a big thankyou to all
team members from 1st and 4th term.
Also,
thank you to Mrs Bell for taking the team to the games, Tiffany McGrath for her
coaching skills and all the other parents who came to help and cheer on our
team – we could not have done it without you.

Don’t
Let Asthma Ruin your Summer Holidays
Summer days can mean lots of fun in the sun and outdoor activity.
Unfortunately many outdoor asthma triggers, including grass, pollen, hot humid
weather and poor air quality can pose a problem for people with asthma through
summer. Good asthma management means being aware of your triggers and avoiding
them wherever possible. Physical activity is also a very common trigger for
asthma. However, as exercise is part of healthy living, it is one trigger that
should be managed and not avoided!
Here are some tips to help you stay active and manage your asthma
this summer….
·
Choose indoor
activities on days when the air quality is poor, particularly on windy days or
when there are any bushfires around.
·
Make sure you have
access to your blue reliever puffer at all times.
·
If physical activity is
a trigger, use a blue reliever puffer 5-10 minutes before you start exercising,
and start slowly to warm up.
·
Never start exercise if
you have asthma symptoms (cough, shortness of breath, wheeze)
