Athletics
We meet each week to practise the skills needed to compete at the Rushcliffe Indoor Athletics competitions. A team of five girls and five boys is then chosen to take part. Field events include Speed Bounce, Sitting Throw, Standing Long Jump, Triple Jump and Javelin. There are then three relay races - Under and Over, Hurdles and Sprint.
Athletics is currently open to children in Years 3 and 4 (September 2010).
Athletics is run most Wednesdays from 3.30pm until 4.15pm. There is a message confirming this in Monday's Assembly. Children should meet in the Year 6 classroom at 3.30pm to get changed into their PE kits. We normally practise in the school hall but we do venture outside in the warmer weather!
