With that came the ability to have regularcontact with each organisation and to be able toattend any event that they were holding.Now in our second year, we have been able toextend our network with even more organisations.With that said, this year the girls had the opportunity to be involved InBasketball, Rugby League, Touch, Rugby Union, Aussie Rules and Volleyball.Under 16’s Palmerston Magpies Team participationAt the end Term 3, PGA was approached by the AFLNT to sponsor thePalmerston Magpies Girls Under 16’s team to participate in the Under 16’s2011/2012 AFL competition. As only PGA members were able to be apart ofthis team, this gave us another great incentive to for PGA students to maintaintheir attendance in school.PGA sets out a list of conditions that students and parents were required toaccept should they want to be a part of this team. Some of those conditionsincluded:• 90% attendance rate must be kept through the rest of the school year• Behaviour l must be kept to a good standard (both in and out of school)©RM&LA Palmerston Girls Academy Annual Report: December 20119
