We had a fantastic Junior Athletics Fun Day, with our Year 0–1 students participating in Block 1, Years 2–3 in Block 2 and Year 4 in Block 4. The children enjoyed a range of fun activities focusing on key athletics skills, including throwing, pulling, jumping and running. From obstacle courses and potato and spoon races to the ever-popular squeaky chicken throw, there was plenty of fun and enthusiasm! Our older students also had the opportunity to practise high jump as they prepare for senior athletics in future years.
A huge thank you to our Year 8, Year 6 and Year 7 students who supported the respective groups throughout the day. They did an outstanding job encouraging and helping our younger learners. Thank you also to our teachers for their preparation, and particularly Mrs Gray and Mr Peck, who worked tirelessly throughout the day to ensure everything ran smoothly.
It was wonderful to see such a fantastic turnout of parents and whānau supporting the children. Despite a little rain earlier in the day, the weather largely cooperated, and everyone enjoyed a great day!
