School hockey and netball tops

All items of School PE kit and the team kit can be purchased from Owen’s Sports in Bethel Square in Brecon.  They can also put you name on your kit, this would help reduce the huge mountain of lost propery that we collect.

We are searching for 10 hockey/netball tops that have been lent out to players for various fixtures and tournaments and have not been returned.  Please Please can these be returned at the earliest opportunity to the PE department.  Thanks Mrs Gilbert
