Parking at North’s Hockey
Club – Important reminder!!!
As many of you are aware Mirrabooka Bridge has been closed
to vehicle traffic for most of 2016. This has meant that parking is very
limited around the club house. We ask all parents to please be patient during
this time and try to allow another five minutes for parking and walking to the
club. The safety of our children is important!
Congratulations!!!!
Congratulations to three of our
Norths Junior Girls who have made the Met North Team. Maddie Bell, Sarah Bartle

Queensland State Championship. Photo of our awesome representatives can be seen below. Well done girls.
