Sports Day saw all our pupils coming together to compete with themselves, each other and the rain across a range of athletic disciplines.
Each pupil belongs to a house – Maree, Tollaidh or Kerry. Our house events throughout the year, including Sports Day, allow pupils to earn points for their house and they have a great sense of house pride! The facepaints were out in force and prospective house leaders ran warm ups at the start of the day.
Competitions included high jump, long jump, shot put, discus, javelin and a variety of short- and long-distance events including a relay. There are lots of pictures of the competitions on Flickr.
Overall winners were Kerry, with Maree in second position and Tollaidh in third.
