It is always amazing to hear our students report and reflect on the day:

On Wednesday I went to the North West Athletics in Penguin. Myself and other DCS students came as well. I competed in the 100 and 200m races. It was very hot but we all still had lots of fun. We competed against other schools, where I saw some friends from my old school. I was excited as I made the Twilight Athletics Carnival.

On Thursday 7th March a group of Year 5 and 6 DCS students competed at the NWPSSA District Athletics Carnival in Penguin. It was a sunny day and everyone had a great time!

 

First up was the 800m that Liam and Que ran for the boys and then for the girls, Ruby and Evie . The long Jump, which Cameron and Sienna did was on at the same time as the 800m. Oliver , Tahnee and Jake competed in the shotput.

 

There were a lot of competitors in the 100m from our school including, Jonty, Lucy, Sienna, Aleks and Cameron. For the 75m, Liam and Que ran, as well as many competing in the 400m. 

 

And finally, the relay races: 

Year Five girls Sienna, Violet, Alex and Annabelle came third and Year Five boys Fletcher, Jobe, Banjo and Jake came fourth. 

Year Six boys Jonty, Que, Liam and Cameron teamed up and came second. Year Six girls Evie, Lucy, Ruby and Molly also ran amazingly and came second.
