We were super excited when some brand new soccers goals were delivered to the school field last week!  Thank you so much to Charlie and Laura James and family of CJ Steel.   It is really fantastic when families like yourselves can utilise your business skills, contacts and suppliers to bring things to fruition.  This really assists us in achieving some of our goals as a school and allows us to put other donated/raised funds elsewhere, so we really appreciate it!
Please support our supporters and click on the CJ Steel logo to see details on their website!  

Attention Families, Coaches & Teachers of Coatesville School,

Please help us out by nominating Coatesville School to win $10,000 worth of new sports gear - see below for further details.  Spread the word and get as many different people to nominate our school!

The winning school will receive $10,000 worth of new sports gear, an upgraded sports turf by the Eden Park groundsman, a VIP tour at Eden Park and a school visit from Keven Mealamu.

Please nominate our school as soon as possible as the nomination entries close in the middle of the holidays on the 16th July.

Please note that if you upload photos/videos that permission is needed for any children presented in them.  If you can quickly confirm with the parents of your sport team members that they give consent for their children to be in photos, for the purposes of providing back up material for this potential funding grant.  If there is anyone opposed, then of course please omit the photos with those children in them.

Click on the link below to find the ‘ NOMINATE NOW' button.  It doesn’t take long.  Just remember to emphasise the challenges the school has to overcome when running sports activities and the role sport plays in Coatesville School.

Our school has many sports teams which include the following:

• some practices get cancelled if fields are closed and the courts are unavailable
• the school BoT will be renovating the septic system soon 
• the next phase is drainage and levelling the field
• the BoT has a list of sports equipment that needs replacing/upgrading which include; high jump mats & mat storage facility, easy up gazebos for sports events, foldable/storable soccer goals (could double up for hockey), discus & shot put storage trolleys

We would really like to acknowledge the Evans family for their continued support of Coatesville School.  Adam has arranged, more than once, for his Urbis Landscape team to tidy up and maintain garden and landscaping areas around the school.

With the support of Urbis Landscapes it helps saves costs for the school and allows us to concentrate on other areas that require funding or caretaker's attention.  If you too have services or materials you or your business can help support the school with, please contact the Principal, Richard Johnson or our Sponsorship & Grants Co-ordinator, Heather Seel.
