Roto Athletics
Date: 14th November 2024
Parents are welcome to come and watch their children participate in various field events in the morning and running events in the afternoon. The events will be held in different parts of the school field.
We would appreciate some parents' help in awarding placements (1st, 2nd, 3rd) to the children in the afternoon running races. If you can help, please inform Roxy.
Below is a basic timetable for the day. Depending on how long it takes to determine the 1st place winner in events like the High Jump, we may finish a bit later than scheduled. This might require a "jump off" and push out the time in our rotations.
