Years K – 6 Athletics Carnival

The Years K-6 Athletics carnival will be held at Hensley Athletics Field, Eastgardens, Monday 1st August.

Year 3 to Year 6 events will begin at 9.15am. Kindergarten to Year 2 will begin at 11.30am. Years 3-6 will be leaving SCEGGS at 8.30am, while Years K-2 will have classes as usual in the morning, leaving SCEGGS by bus at 10.30am. All girls are expected to arrive at school as normal and will travel to the carnival via bus. The carnival will conclude for all girls at 2.00pm. All girls will travel back to school by bus and will return in time for a carline pick up.

Unfortunately, due to minimal undercover areas and limited seating at Hensley, we cannot have spectators at this year’s Primary Athletics Carnival. We look forward to welcoming parents back to next year’s carnival when we resume regular programming at the newly renovated ES Marks Athletics Field.

All sporting co-curricular activities will run as usual and After School Care will be open.

Girls are asked to wear full PE uniform to school, including sun hats and a fleece/sports jacket/cardigan. Girls may decorate their uniforms with House colours, for example: T-shirt, socks and/or ribbons in House colours and hats decorated with House colours. Girls catching public transport to and from school must wear full PE uniform, adding their House colours upon their arrival at school and returning to full PE uniform before going home in the afternoon.

Things to Take
Girls: Sunscreen, sun hats, track suits or School fleece, recess, lunch, drinks and snacks.

Inclement Weather
In the case of inclement weather, the carnival may be cancelled. In which case a normal school day will proceed. A decision will be made at 8.00am. This information will be available on SCEGGSSport via the Twitter Feed. To do this, download Twitter from the App Store or Google Play and search for SCEGGS Sport.
