Clovelly Public School and Easts Football Club Partnership

We are excited to further our collaboration between Clovelly Public School and Easts Football Club in 2026, aimed at providing students with expanded footballing opportunities. As part of this partnership, students would have the chance to play on set teams with Clovelly students during the 2026 Eastern Suburbs Football Association Winter Season and enjoy scheduled training sessions before school hours.
