Hi All,
Sports Day
The 2018 school year is in full swing and in P.E we have started to prepare for sports day with the children practicing the various events they will be participating in on the day. A few events will be competed prior to sports day due to the time they take to determine a winner or a shortage of space on the day. The following events will be held early.
Long Jump – Friday 9th of March
High Jump– Friday 9th of March
Students will need to qualify for the above events by clearing certain Height/Lengths in their P.E lessons this week. A note will be sent home on Thursday if a students has been successful in qualifying for the Friday ‘Jump Offs’. This is only applicable to students in years 2-6
Distance Run – Wednesday 14th of March @1:50pm on the Oval.
2018 Programme
Please note that our Twilight sports day starts at 1:00pm. Students can start arriving at school at 12:30pm to be in class for roll call at 12:45. I am looking forward to seeing you all on the day to watch the kids participate in a wide range of sporting activities and I will again be looking for volunteers to assist on the day so don’t be shy in filling out the ‘Helper Notes’ that went out last Thursday.
See you all soon,
Mr P
Hi Mr P, the tabloid program still has high jump and long jump listed. Is this correct?
Thanks
Alice Cameron
Hi Alice,
Yes this is correct as the kids will still be jumping for points on the day. By doing the ‘jump off’ prior to the day we just eliminate a lot of measuring and extra jumps that take a lot of time.
Cheers,
Mick
