Tomorrow, students in years 3-6, who qualified for Divisonal Swimming, will attend WAVES in Wodonga.  Good luck to Loki, Cooper, Harry, Goldie, Queenie, Gen, Peter, Griffin, Luella, Ferdi, Cleo and Charlie.  We will all be cheering you on and hope you have a great day.  We look forward to hearing all about it next week.

 

Parents, please refer to Steph on the day to see what jobs will need to be allocated to ensure the whole carnival runs smoothly.  Mount Beauty Amateur Swimming Club has kindly let us borrow a couple of their marquees for the day to provide some shelter from the sun.  

 

We are pleased to announce the overall winner of the Upper Hume Swimming Carnival, was Indigo Blue! 

 

 

Falls Creek Mountain Bike Interschools

The Falls Creek Mountain Bike Park is hosting the one day Victorian Interschools MTB competition.

This XCO - cross country Olympic event format race is suitable for beginners and experienced riders alike. There will be a shorter course for juniors and a longer more challenging course for older riders. Featuring on-road, off-road and the flowing single track Falls Creek is famous for. Students will loop the course multiple times and the fastest overall time wins.

This event format is intentionally designed to introduce kids to a variety of mountain bike terrain. All entrants will be covered under MTBA insurance and receive a snack lunch. The event features professional-level timing and will have first aid support.

 

Entries are now open for students in years 3-6 to register for the mountain bike interschools, to be held at Falls Creek. Schools from all over Victoria attend and participate in this event each year.  If you are registering, please make sure you link it to Mount Beauty Primary School.  This will all add points to our school as a whole, and will hopefully see the return of the trophy to our school.   Last year we placed 3rd, which was a tremendous effort from a small crew.

 

Please speak with Nicole or Amanda if you need assistance.
