Twelve of our year 5/6 children had a successful afternoon competing in our cluster athletics event. We competed against seven other schools in running, jumping and throwing. We achieved 1st place in girl’s relays, the 2 and 3 length sprints, chest push, standing long jump (boys and girls) and triple jump for girls.
We have signed up to ‘Keep the memory alive’, this year’s theme, by reading some of the stories about people who either lost their lives or were separated from family and friends.
