Athletics Day Approaching Fast!

Mrs G Beardmore —

This annual event is a highlight in the school calendar and involves all students from Year 0 -13. Held annually at the Caledonian Sports Ground, Columba College has our Sports (Athletics) Day scheduled for MONDAY, 8th MARCH 2021.

This much anticipated event has a focus on participation as well as competition with students having fun and earning house points. The day will be a whole-school event again this year, with camaraderie and teamwork seen across all age groups. Parents are very welcome to attend and encouraged to come along to support students throughout the day.

There will be multiple event options for your child to participate in from throwing, running, and jumping, to tabloid games. A whole-school House relay will take part at 12.00pm followed by staff, student and parent relays to close the event at 3.15pm.

Please note: the Junior School will be released at 1pm after the conclusion of the House relay. Students in Years 0-6 may, at this time, be  collected by parents from the Caledonian Sports Ground and taken home. Alternatively, if parents are unable to collect them, a bus will be arranged to transport Junior School students back to school where the will be supervised until the end of the school day. If you require this supervision, Mrs Hogg will need to be notified so that she is able to make arrangements.  Please complete the Google form by clicking the link below if this is the case.
