Happy Holly and Jubilant Jed!

We could hardly wipe the smiles off our faces on Tuesday 16th of September. We were all so excited to get into our day of sports! Rain was forecast but thankfully we only saw sunshine and a few grey clouds. 

We were in year level groups and each group made their way through activities, in tabloid sports style. The groups were lead by our Grade 5/6 Sports ministers who did an exceptional job at being role models and organisers. Many families came out to support us and we shared a picnic lunch with them. Family members also assisted in time keeping and running the activities - thank you to those people!

Shaun is excited for Sports Day!

Our activities were gumboot throw, obstacle course, human quoits, hurdles, running race, long jump, bowling, high jump and target throw - a great mix of traditional athletics activities and fun games!

At the end of our activities and lunch we were in class teams and completed relays - egg and spoon, sack race, and baton race!

We had a wonderful day and we'd like to thank Mr Campbell and Mrs Currie for their organisation and planning, 5/6 students for leading us, and all the families who came to watch.
