On Thursday the children in the A team and 9 year olds competed in the annual athletics day. On two occasions we had to postpone athletics day, but the third day was a charm. It was damp in the morning, however the sun shone in the afternoon and the ground dried up.
The children competed in sprints 50m, 60m, 80m and 100m. After the sprints were completed the children competed in the middle distance races - 9 and 10 year olds ran 1000m and 11years and older ran 1200m.
The field events the children competed in were long jump, high jump, shot put and discus.

Thank you to all the parents who helped and all the parents who came and supported the children. We appreciate all the help we get.\

The next step for the children who won in the field and track events are the South West Zone Athletics on Thursday 3rd November.

In the 10yr Girls Middle Distance Race  - Room 3 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Well Done!
