Year 3&4 Athletics Districts competitions
Last week Year 3&4 and Year 5&6 travelled to the Sporting Village to part take in our annual districts competition. They competed in throwing, jumping, long and short distance running and the relay. The team did their best with many children getting through to the finals of their race. Overall, we came home with a Gold medal from Lucas B for his chest push and Aaron Ai a Silver medal for his 60 metre sprint. Well done to all the team -especially on what turned out to be a couple of very hot days! Also a thank you to the parents who helped out this year.
Fustal
We also attended our first Fustal competition this week. For those of you who are unsure of what Fustal is, Fustal is an indoor version of football played on a hard court. A mixed team of Year 5&6 participated in 5 a side game against 7 other schools from Basildon. The team played really well and we just lost Bronze place to Fairhouse in the deciding game. Well done team!
