2017 Classes and Staffing at BPSCurrently we have 51 students enrolled at BPS for 2017. At this point in time that means that there will be three classes here next year with all of the same permanent classroom teachers remaining in their present roles. Final details and exact classes will be confirmed closer to the end of the year.
Whole School SportFor the first 5 weeks of this term Barrington students are participating in a Rugby Clinic on Fridays. Rugby Union NSW is sending a coach to teach the students skills through games to develop their ball skills and overall fitness. This activity has been provided through a Sporting Schools Grant worth approx. $1300. Could you please ensure your child is dressed appropriately for sport on Fridays.

Tri-ChallengeOn Friday 25 September, 3 students from Barrington School participated in the Gloucester High School Tri-Challenge. Georgia Schultz was our bike rider and had been training hard with her brother Dylan. She completed the 10km ride in excellent time. Isaac McClure was our canoeist. It was very challenging canoeing 4km in a river that had not seen much water but Isaac pushed on to tag our runner, Sarah Redman. He managed to overtake one of the Gloucester Primary School contestants. Sarah has always been a great cross country runner and she did the 4km run with little trouble. Sarah ran in 3rd for the primary age group just 100m behind the 2nd place getter. Well done Georgia, Isaac and Sarah.
