ATHLETICS CARNIVAL -


FRIDAY 22ND JUNE Our annual Athletics Carnival is coming up on Friday, 22 June (Week 9) and we are very much looking forward to what is always a big event on the CPS sporting calendar. As in previous years, track events, novelties and ball games will take place on the day of the carnival and field events will be run as a sport choice. This means that those students who wish to compete in high jump, long jump, shot -put and discus will do so on Friday afternoons during sport. Winter sport will commence next week.


All primary students are expected and encouraged to


attend the Athletics


Carnival and all will be entered into their 100m age race. Students then have the option of running in the 800m and 200m races and participating in ball games and novelty events. The P & C will be cooking up a storm with a sausage sizzle on offer for lunch and the SRC will be giving prizes to the best dressed supporters for their House.


As always parental/family support is very much appreciated and if you are able to assist with timekeeping/place judging, please complete the return slip on page 5 and return it to the school office. We are desperate for assistance.
