Athletics Day - Year 5-8

On Wednesday 4 November the school held it’s annual Y5-8 Athletics Day at Lloyd Elsmore Park. This is the second year that the school has held its athletics day at this wonderful venue. The day was sunny and the children needed to keep applying sunscreen. I was extremely impressed with the attitude of all the children to give things an go. Children could choose between competitive or non-competitive for most of the events.

Children who came first or did well in more than one discipline will represent the school at the Bays Suburbs Athletics for Years 5 and 6 (Glover Park on 17 November) and at the Eastern Zone Athletics for Years 7 and 8 (Lloyd Elsmore Park on 19 November).

Thank you to our Sports Co-ordinator, Nicola Gray, for organising a successful event enjoyed by everyone. Thanks to staff and parents who helped out at the stations, with recording and first aid.
