PARKING at Touch

Please show Manaakitanga around Parking when going to Touch on a Wednesday. A message below from Total Touch.

It is really important that we respect our Tōtara Park neighbours. Especially when it comes to parking responsibly.

Opposite the Awakairangi Park car park there is a gate which is frequently used by horse floats and vehicles for the property. PLEASE DO NOT park in front of it.
There is No Parking signage, sometimes that gets removed, but either way do not block access to this driveway.

Every season we get people parking here and a really upset neighbour. Please can you pass this on to your touch parents.

Ngā mihi nui.

REGISTRATIONS OF INTEREST FOR NON STOP CRICKET TOURNAMENT

The Upper Hutt Primary Schools Sports Association “Non Stop Cricket Tournament” is being held on Tuesday 22nd September (with a PP day on Thursday 24th September), at Maidstone Turf and our school is keen to offer our students the opportunity to play in this Tournament.

Students will walk down and back to the turf.

This event is open to all interested Year 3-6 students for selection into our team entries, however we will be prioritising non-cricket players in team selection if numbers are high.

We can only enter 4 teams of 8 students across the Senior Syndicate (two Y5/6 and two Y3/4). Tournament is an 8-aside non-stop cricket format with 8 players per team.
