NORTHERN PENINSULA DIVISION ATHLETICS

Congratulations to the five Baxter PS students who attended Mornington Athletics track on Wednesday 7th October, to compete in the Track and Field Events of the Northern Peninsula Division Athletics. It was a perfect day and the students competed at a high level, representing Baxter Primary School with lots of skill & confidence.

Congratulations to;

Will M 1st in 1500m & 800m

Macey D 1st in Shot Put & Discus

Well done also to Hunter S (long jump) and Ryan H (shot put) who both placed 3rd in their events and Lukah SF who placed 4th in discus.

Thank you for representing the Murdoch District at such a high level. We are very proud of you all.

Macey & Will now go on to compete in the Southern Metro Region Athletics next week at Casey Fields.

This year our students will again receive FREE first aid training from St Johns first aid.

On Wednesday 11th and Thursday 12th November, St Johns will present essential information to all students regarding what to do in an emergency. This will take place during your child’s PE or sport lesson (except for FT & FE who will attend their first aid sessions on Wednesday morning).

Junior students will be taught how to identify danger, how to send for help & what to do to stay calm and look after themselves. Senior students will learn CPR and how to assist in an emergency.

All students will receive a first aid certificate. We ask that you please allow your child to make a gold coin donation to contribute to the work that St John’s do to ensure the safety of everyone in our community.

I hope your child gains some very important knowledge from taking part in this course.

Many thanks,

Jodie Baxter
