Excursion Date:
Jun 15, 2023
Excursion Description:
As part of our physical education program, this term we are holding our Athletics Carnival on Thursday 15th June.
Students will partake in sprint events and age appropriate field events. Students in Prep – Year 3 will compete in their Year levels (with the exception of year 3 students born in 2015).
Students born 2015 – 2011 will compete in their year of birth. This is done to align with the Queensland School Sport structure of 10-12 years sport and for students in year 3 & 4 to be familiar with competing in their year levels by the time they are 10.
To enable all events to be included in the schedule, a number of events will be held on days after the carnival day. Please look over the following with your child and encourage them to participate in as many events as they want.
