We are delighted to announce that Waimairi School will be hosting our school athletics day on

Wednesday 29 October at St James Park; pp Friday 31 October. You are welcome to support,

cheer and celebrate running, jumping and throwing from all our school’s children. Year 3 ­ 6 will

be leaving at 8:50 am for a 9:15 briefing. Age is based as at 1 October 2014. Year 0 ­ 2 classes

will depart at 10:50 for an 11:30 start.


Children will have a breather and time to rest and eat lunch at conclusion of the morning

programme at 1 pm. This is a great time to bring a picnic with your family.

At 1:30 pm Year 3 ­ 6’s begin their sprint finals and class relays at 1:30 pm. Year 3 ­ 6 students

will be supporting their classmates until the end of the relays. Year 0 ­ 2 students will walk back

brimmed sunhat and suitable running shoes. We will provide sunblock though your child can

bring their own too. You may need to discuss your child’s needs (eg asthma medication) with

your class teacher. Please let us know about non participants; we would like to include these

children with volunteering on the day.

Qualifying athletes in 9, 10 and 11 year age groups are eligible to compete at the North Zone

Championships which is on Tuesday 11 th November at Rawhiti Domain, New Brighton. Our
