Hello, from PE

News from PE-  Ms. Laura Hicks.

Whole School Athletics Day

Our Athletics Day will be on Thursday March 7th. The event is held at the Bendigo Athletics Complex in Flora Hill. 

Please mark your child's permission on Sentral for the event. Bus times and reminders for the day are also on Sentral.

Students in Grades 3-6 will compete in traditional athletic events including high jump, hurdles. long jump, discus, shot put and running events. Successful students in Grades 3-6 then have the opportunity to progress to District Athletics later in the term.

Students in Grades F-2 will compete in modified events as well as some fun activities. The egg and spoon race, jumping sack races and bean bad throw will all feature.

Parents/guardians/carers are all welcome to come and watch the event. We would also love some parent helpers on the day especially in the grade 3-6 area where we will need help to measure and time events.  If you are able to assist on the day please let me know via email: laura.hicks@education.vic.gov.au

Students are encouraged to dress up in their house colours on the day. New students will be given a house colour in the coming weeks if they haven't already received one. There will be more information sent home to families in the coming weeks.

If parents have any PE related questions throughout the year please get in touch with me.
