K-6 Athletics Carnival

What a wonderful day we had for our K-6 Carnival. Thank you to Year 4 who opened the carnival with a moving Acknowledgement of Country on the running track.

There was a continuous buzz in the air, and it was fantastic to see the girls participating with such enthusiasm in the track and field events.

Kindergarten to Year 2 arrived at 11.30 to entertain us with running races, novelties, obstacle courses and a shuttle relay. For Year 1 and Kindergarten it was their first experience at ES Marks.

Thank you to all the Primary staff for their help; judging, marshalling, taking photos, recording, giving out ribbons, supervising the houses, recording distances and heights in the field events.

The Open Primary Championship was the penultimate event where the eight fastest girls in the Primary school fought out a very tight race. Congratulations to Marni Hootman (Langley) who won in a tight contest.
