It is an exciting week as we finalise preparations for our Whole School Athletics Day this Thursday.
A group of superstar parents and staff spent Sunday morning marking out the track on our oval, fluffing up the sand in the long jump pit and cutting back the overgrown grass on our asphalt track. On Monday morning there were already kids practising their racing skills on the freshly painted track!
After last year’s event, so many community members said that it was their favourite school event for the year. To have all the students, from Prep to Year 6, actively involved in fun events all in the same place made for such a wonderful atmosphere. Be sure that you come along and join in the fun!
Keep an eye out for Kylie’s special Aths Day lunches in the Canteen and don’t forget to grab a coffee and snack while you are watching.
Finally, we are still on the lookout for some more parent volunteers to help with the day. Each event is overseen by a staff member with a parent/s simply assisting. We have even broken the day up into shifts to allow those with limited availability to be able to help out. Thank you to those who have already put their names forwardm but we still need a lot more to join them.
