Interschool Athletics

On the 3rd of December A.P.S and other primary schools from Nelson came together for Athletics at Saxton oval. The six events were long jump, 800m run, 100m sprints, high jump, tennis ball throw and  last but not least the quoits throw. I liked the high jump but the most challenging was 800m run. 100m sounds long but it doesn’t look long. I enjoyed all of the sports events.

Athletic Recount

Yesterday, on the third of December, most of Nile room traveled to the Saxton Oval by car to compete against some other Primary Schools in the Interschool Athletics. There were 7 activities: high jump, Quoits, tennis ball throw, sprints, long jump, 800 metres and our last event relay. I think that the hardest part for me was the high jump. I still had a great time :)
