School Athletics by Simon Clarke

Kaikorai Primary Athletics Day!

We are thrilled to host our school athletics day this Tuesday, on what looks to be a stunning day in Dunedin!

When: Tuesday, 31st of October, 9:30 AM - 2:30 PM.

Where: Caledonian Grounds

Timetable: All children will be bused to the Caledonian at 9:15 am, with the first events beginning at 9:50 am. Junior children will return to school by bus at 12:30 pm, and the Seniors and Middles will return at 2:30 pm. 

If you intend to take your child directly to the Caledonian or back home, please inform your child's teacher. 

While we will make every effort to adhere to a strict timetable, we recognise that some events may start or finish slightly earlier. If you plan to watch a specific event, we suggest allowing for this.
