2025 Sport Nominations
This year, we are excited to introduce Clipboard, a new, more efficient, and streamlined platform for activity nominations. This change comes in response to valuable feedback from our parent community, who highlighted the need for a user-friendly and integrated nomination process.
Clipboard has been successfully used internally at Pulteney throughout 2024, and we are now pleased to open its parent-facing side for 2025 activity selection.
Clipboard offers numerous benefits, including:
- Co-curricular team and group communication, notifications, and calendar integration.
- The ability to flag activity clashes and nominate children for multiple activities (sports, performing arts, and special interest) all in one go, reducing the need for multiple forms.
- Integration with the soon to launch Pulteney Parent App.
Information regarding 2025 co-curricular and extra-curricular activity selection and unique family log in details will be communicated this week.
Please see further information regarding 2025 co-curricular nominations HERE
Anglican Cup
On Friday 22 November, selected Year 5 and 6 students will travel down to St Peters Woodlands at Glenelg to participate in the 2024 Junior Anglican Cup. Students will compete against other Anglican schools in boys’ and girls’ netball and mixed touch football competitions. Further information and a consent link has been sent to families of selected students.
PE Week (Monday 11 Nov – Friday 15 Nov) in the Junior School
This week is PE Week. There are a range of activities happening across the Junior School and all students are encouraged to wear their PE uniform from Tuesday to Thursday. Friday 15 November is a ‘gold coin donation’ Casual Clothes Day. Students can wear their favourite sporting team’s colours or uniform (t-shirts must be worn under singlets). Classroom teachers will collect donations from the students at the beginning of the day and the money will support the Pulteney Grammar School Christmas Hamper Appeal. Money raised will be used to assist with purchasing hampers to assist the Anglicare/Mary Magdeline Centre Christmas Appeal.
All Junior School families (parents, carers, grandparents, younger siblings etc) are invited to join in our Friday morning ‘Run Club’ in the Parklands during PE Week as a great way get some steps up for the day. Our athletics coaches and some teaching staff will meet on Harriers Oval near the South Tce overpass at 7.20am. There will be options to suit all abilities and fitness levels. We would love to see students and families out there getting amongst it.
