Thank you to everyone who helped make this year's Athletics Carnival a success! It was a great day and the weather was what we ordered. Your understanding in track changes and seating on the day was appreciated and we look forward to the improvements being made to grandstand seating ready for next year!
The day was a success on many levels – we saw so many students having a go and trying their best, as well as some great examples of sportsmanship and athleticism. Two records were again broken this year, both in the 100m age races. Charlotte S broke the 100m 8 years girls record that stood for the past 9 years by almost 1 second. Sofia R broke the 100m 13 years girls record that stood for the past 23 years by almost 1 second also.
Brilliant effort girls!!
Our senior students awarding Ernies at lunch times appreciating students for adopting our PBL expectations and giving reminders when needed.
House Captains are working hard every lunch to organise the sport shed and ensure that students have access to equipment dur-ing break times.
The 1500m event for boys and girls in the 10, 11 and 12 years categories was a late entry to this year's zone calendar. We therefore had to run this race at school after our school carnival.

Following the Zone Carnival, any eligible students invited to attend the Sydney North Carnival will do so on Monday 4th September at Sydney Olympic Park, Homebush.
Once all athletics events have been finalised, we will be holding our Years 3-6 Athletics Presentation of carnival ribbons, House trophy, Zone and Sydney North ribbons and Age Champion medals on the last Friday of term (22nd September). This assembly will take place in the school hall and begin at 2:05pm. Parents/carers are invited to attend.
