Firstly, a huge congratulations to all of our MPS students today that participated in the 5-6 year old Give It A Go and the 7-11 year old Athletics Prelims, you all did AMAZING!

We were very lucky with the weather and were pushing all day to try and get the day done before the rain set in, we managed, just!

Congratulations to the students featured in the photos attached that have qualified to race on Wednesday morning (weather permitting) in our Track Finals as well as our Bowler Cup. Also attached is the programme for the morning, please note however that races can run slightly early or late depending on the day.

If your child has qualified then they need to come to school on Wednesday morning prepared to run with all the essential items, just like today.

Once the Track Finals are complete, I will announce the students that have qualified for Interschool Athletics in both our track and field events for our 7-11 year olds. This is the top three in each age group for each event, boys and girls.

Thanks for all the parents and family that came out today to support!

If the weather isn't so kind to us on Wednesday, communication will come out closer to the time.

Thanks,
Mrs Bateman

Athletics Day Update

At this stage we are still going to plan with both our 5-6 year old Give It A Go and our 7-11 year old Athletics Day tomorrow. 

Due to the ever changing and unpredictable weather, there is a chance that the programme tomorrow will be altered to accomodate the weather, this decision will not be made until tomorrow and will probably be ever evolving as the day goes on. 

We will do our best to keep Facebook and Skool Loop updated with any changes. There is a chance that our 200m heats will be pushed to the afternoon and we will start with the 10:20am round first up, again this decision will be made tomorrow morning. 

Until then, it is all go!

With the worsening weather forecast later in the week, our Athletics Finals Day may need to be cancelled, if this is the case, heat times from tomorrow will be used to determine placings and entries for Interschool Events. More information around this possible change will come later in the week as we continue to monitor the forecast. 

The weather is totally out of our control but we will do our best to ensure we get through as much as possible before it becomes too wet or unsafe. 

Many thanks, 
Mrs Bateman
