Primary Gala Day

This semester has presented the Primary School with some challenging decisions. Unfortunately the Athletics Carnival had to be canceled. However, with some ingenuity from Mr Taylor, we were able to create a Gala Day in its place. 

The day was a modified version of the Athletics Carnival that took place at Queens Park. In different periods throughout the day students from the Primary School came down to compete in a variety of activities run by the House Captains. Some of the activities included tug of war, relays, egg and spoon race, and throwing a gum boot! 

Early in the day the Years 3 and 4 came down to the park. The House Captains accompanied them to help set up and run each of the activities. After the activities were done, Years 3 and 4 returned to school and had lunch while the House Captains stayed at the park and had lunch. After lunch, Years 5 and 6 came down, and the teachers ran the stations so the House Captains could have fun.

We greatly appreciated the opportunity to help organise and participate in the Gala Day and want to thank Mr Taylor for co-ordinating.

It was one of the best highlights in our Term 3 duties as House Captains.
