Matakei? Wairau? Koru? Patuha? Who came out triumphant?
Oakura School is eagerly awaiting for the announcement of the winning house
after a competitive and successful school Athletics Day. All year 4s and up engaged
in a fierce competition of six events. Yesterday, the fields of Oakura School
were covered with kids wearing red, blue, green and gold achieving personal
bests, keeping fit and having fun.
“I really liked how everyone gave it their all and the
competitiveness was at a high level,” said Kara in the Koru house. Blair added,
“I found it enjoyable because athletics is always fun and competing in your age
group is definitely challenging.” The kids participated in sprints (50m and
80m), 400m run, high jump, long jump, javelin and shot put.
Everybody gave it a go and enjoyed achieving highly. We saw
a lot of personal bests being achieved and friendly challenges on the field.
Athletics is a fun way of completing the P.E curriculum. As Tasmin said for
everyone, “It was loads of fun and I cant wait for next time.”
