Well done to EVERY student who participated in the Athletics Sports last Friday.
What a fantastic day, with blue sky and sunshine and plenty of cheering. Students conducted themselves beautifully all day and it was a delight to watch them compete in their events. The generous parent contribution of time and encouragement for the students added to the success of the day.
Special thanks must go to the staff who spent many hours coaching the students prior to the day - the students preparation was hugely noticeable at the Sports.
A huge thank you must go to the following parents who ably assisted with the Discus and Shot Put: Fiona Argento, Janice Lawrence, Debbie Allott, Mark Jenkins, Tanya Cook and Sandra Jenkins.
Also, a special thank you to the parents who supported their P-2
students and Mrs Purvis (in the absence of Mrs Kemper). We greatly appreciated your help and encouragement. We are proud to send 10 students to the next level of competition and wish them every success.
