Year 4-8 Athletics Day

Craig Allchurch —

The training has begun, our Year 4-8 athletics days are rapidly approaching!

Next term our two main sporting events will take place in week 2, term 4. These days are only for children in Years 4-8 and the details are as follows;

-Long distance races (Tuesday 20 October, 1.40pm - 2.30pm)

-Track and field events ( Wednesday 21 October, full day) 

For full details on timings of events, please see the attached programme. 

These sporting events are some of the largest on the sporting calendar, as there is quite a bit of teaching involved with techniques. So far, we have observed some really positive progress. 

Parents are very welcome to attend both days, and if you are interested in forming a parent relay team to challenge the students and kaimahi, please let Whaea Holly know. Last year, it was quite the battle! 

The years 1-3 athletics day will take place in week 7, term 4. (Friday 27 November). The details for this day will be released early in term 4. 

Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions about our upcoming athletics days. 

Whaea Holly and Matua Craig
