On Athletics day it was sunny and everyone was boiling as soon as everyone got there. The Athletics day was held at St Heliers , Glover Park! Everyone was really excited to get started.

Year 5 ( room 13, 12, & 4) were doing sprints first with Mr Shroff and Mr Kloppers.The Top 3 girls of the Year 5 girls was 1st, Natalia, 2nd Rosie, 3rd Sophie. Then the Year 5 boys did their race. The Top 3 Year 5 boys were , 1st Solomon, 2nd Jude, 3rd Nikko.

After all the sprinting , Year 5 went over to High Jump with Miss Kelly. The high jump pole kept moving up and up until we only had 2 contestants! Then the 2 contestants kept jumping on and on for 5 times but then ...... we finally had a winner! 1st Rosie, 2nd Tessa, 3rd Hollie ( From room 13)! For the Year 5 boys it was , 1st Jude, Tied 2nd Fraser & Zubaid ( From room 13)!

Then Year 5 had shot put with Miss Brown. WE had to try and throw as far as we could. The Top 3 Year 5 girls were, 1st Laura , 2nd ?, 3rd ?. The Top Year 5 boys were, 1st Fraser, 2nd Caleb, 3rd Solomon. The shot put was really fun for me because I always like to practise my throwing.

Next up , we had Long Jump with Miss Hodson ( my awesome teacher). The Long jump was really fun and I really enjoyed because I got to jump into the nice soft sand! The top 3 year 5 girls were , 1st Maala, 2nd Rosie, 3rd Laura? The top 3 boys in year 5 were , 1st Solomon, 2nd Jude, 3rd Ryan?

After long jump, we had soft ball throw with Mrs - Mckenna Woodley. The soft ball was when you had to hold the ball by your ear and push the ball off your hands and the ball was quite heavy so it was heavy for some people. The top 3 girls were, 1st Laura, 2nd Charlotte, 3rd ?. The top 3 boys were , 1st Fraser, 2nd Solomon, 3rd Ryan.

Then it was the relays! For the Year 5 girls , 1st Room 4, 2nd Room 12, 3rd Room 13! Year 5 boys , 1st Room 4, 2nd Room 12, 3rd Room 13! After the relays it was time to go back to school!!!!
