Sports Day
Sports day is one of the highlights in the school calendar. Everyone is involved. Nursery and Reception kicked off proceedings outside Wilson House with a variety of fun races followed by presentations of special medals to all.
Pre Prep and Prep competed on the lush pastures of Button Field. Pre Prep had a carousel of sporting activities followed by sprinting on the track. Prep had a more formal afternoon, with Long Jump, High Jump, Cricket ball throw and Javelin followed by Sprints and relay races. It was a celebration of sporting activity with families picnicking and enjoying the spectacle of their child competing heroically for their house or breaking a school record. For the record the current victors were Champion for the Pre Prep and Cantrell for the Prep.
