After the recent rain, and with Frog’s Holla being out of service for the winter, we have had to readjust the plans for this year’s school Athletics Carnival. In addition to our main Athletics Carnival, which will be held onsite at school on Friday 14 June, there will be other events; Long Jump, the 200m and 800m event, that will be held on the Tuesday 4 June. More details on these events are outlined below. You are welcome to join us at any or all of these events.

Long Jump, 200m and 800m events - Tuesday 4 June

In the morning session, the students from Years 3 to 6 only, will walk to Milton Public School to participate in the Long Jump event. We thank Milton Public School for allowing us to use their facilities. 

In the afternoon session, again the students from Years 3 to 6 only, will compete in the 200m and 800m event on the St Mary’s School Oval. 

More information will be made available soon via a compass event note. Please note that these events are only for the older children, as they are eligible to qualify for the Diocesan Athletics Carnival held in August in Wollongong. 

Athletics Carnival - Friday 14 June

All Kinder to Year 6 students will rotate through various track and field events including; High Jump, Shot Put, Discus, 100m sprint, informal relays, and ball games. Our infants will participate in modified versions of these events. A program of events will be made available closer to the date. If you can volunteer to help on this day or would like further information regarding these events, please do not hesitate to contact Mrs Katy Reid (info@sosmdow.catholic.edu.au).
