Physical Activity: Athletics

During the Easter holidays some of the children went to CIT for athletics. Taking part in an 80 metre sprint and a relay team race. One of our pupils in third class came first in the under 11’s sprint and the relay team came 2nd.

 

Many of the children also took part in the community games and had a great success in the sprints and the hurdles.

 

It is fantastic to see the children involved in so many activities in  and outside of school!
