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. 

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.

I am looking forward to another busy year in PE. If parents have any PE related questions throughout the year please get in touch with me.
