Long Jump and Quoits

Long jump at athletics

On Wednesday 30th of October we had athletics day .Athletics took place at Newtown Park. One thing we did was long jump, a number of kids got in.

Everybody did so well. You had to jump three metres to get into the next round. Well done to the kids who got into the next round.

We had a great day.

Quoits at athletics

At athletics we do Sprints, vortex, high jump, long jump, relays and quoits of course. When the people switched round to quoits the year 5 boys had to throw the quoit 20 meters, if you throw it further than 20 meters the teacher will measure it and then put a peg in the ground where you threw it but if your score gets beaten they will take out that peg and put another peg where the score got beaten again by someone else. Only 3 people in the year 5s qualified/ 1 boy and 2 girls so they are in the Central Zone athletics.
