📣 3-6 Athletics Trials Day – Monday 11th August

A reminder that our Grade 3–6 Athletics Trials Day is coming up on Monday 11th August, and will take place at Ringwood Athletics Track, Proclamation Park.

This is a fantastic opportunity for all students in Grades 3–6 to apply the athletics skills they’ve been learning in PE lessons, while enjoying a fun and supportive competition with their peers. Results from the day will help us select the Holy Spirit Athletics Team to compete at the District Athletics later this term.

All students will participate in:

• Long Jump
• Triple Jump
• Shot Put
• Discus
• 100m sprint (Top 8 from each 100m race will also run in the 200m sprint)

Students will compete in age/gender groups: 9/10 years & under, 11 years, and 12/13 years, based on their age as of 31st December 2025.

Canteen Access:The canteen facilities at the track will be available for students to purchase a snack during their scheduled breaks.
