Cycling Record Broken

All of the 48 finalists in the 2010 Cycling Championships are now know after the year 4 heats today. Another record was broken today also when Zach G. sliced 2 seconds off Nathan C.'s 2009 Year 4 Boys' record.

Ex FOS old girl Laura Wood will join Max Beckert to present the ribbons to the first three in each age group and the 4th place-getters will also receive a certificate. Laura is a member of the NZ Triathlon squad and an accomplished cyclist. (photo of Laura opposite and read a Press Article about her here )


The finals start at 12.40pm with the ride offs for 3rd/4th starting with the Year 0/1 Girls and moving to the Year 6 Boys ride off at 1.35pm. The 1st/2nd ride offs will take place from 1.40pm until 2.35pm followed by prize-giving at 2.45pm. If wet, the finals will be postponed till Wednesday 15 December.

All finalists are on this blog, a few postings below and also under the "Useful Links" section and under "Cycle Entry List 2010".

We won the A grade volleyball final!

We won the A grade volleyball final!

Our boys Matisse, Ed, Garrick, Harry W and Yuri went in as underdogs having lost the previous week to their finals opponents Mairehau A in pool play.

Mairehau were confident but our boys stunned them from the outset with calm, quick precision.

Fendalton played a fast game moving and diving desperately all over the court, determined to make the opposition work for every point.

Fendalton played the more intelligent, strategic game, remaining calm and cool under pressure to win 10 games to 8

True Champions!

Fendalton also won the B Grade final

Ashleigh, Brittany, Helena, Natsuko and Georgia were convincing winners.

Again the developing skill level of our girls was wonderful to watch.

Other results are pending but with another 7 teams in the competition and lots of wins in the final games we are confident of more great results in the other grades.

Tee Ball Champions and Cricket 3rd and 5th

Our A Tee Ball team are Canterbury Champions again after a close pool game against Elmwood A which they either lost by one run or drew - we have conflicting reports. In any case, we have more points on the season's table, with a draw or a close loss, winning the trophy for us. Well done Tee Ballers!

The Blue Milo Cricket team ended up third= in the Milo Trophy after good wins against Oaklands and St. Albans and a close loss to eventual winners, Paparoa Street. Unfortunately the official play off for third never took place due to an oversight form Canterbury Cricket, so we take a third=.

The Red Milo Cricket team ended up 5th in the B Grade after one win and two close losses (by 1 run and 4 runs) in pool play. They then won their play off for 5th against Marshlands A.

No results from the Volleyball players yet........

Big Day for Summer sports on Friday

Friday is a big day for our Summer Sports Teams.......

The Blue and Red Milo Cricket Teams are in day-long competitions at Hospital Corner, Hagley Park, for the Finals of the Milo Trophy Red(A) and Black(B) Grade finals.

The A Tee- Ball team takes on Elmwood A at 1.30pm at South Hagley Park in the play-off for first place in their competition in the A Grade.

The A Volleyball team plays off against Windsor A in a semi - final of the A grade. If they win, they then play off against the winner of the other semi for the championship.

The last of the Cycle heats will be held at school for Year 4 children and one Year 2 Girls' race, starting at 12.25pm. The Cycle Champs have involved over 160 children and the finals will be on Monday 13 December from 12.40pm until prize-giving at 2.45pm with Max Beckert.

2010 Cycle Champs Underway

The 2010 FOS Individual Pursuit Cycle Champs got underway today. All results are on the google doc. called "Cycle Entry List 2010" on the left of this blog.

Leading the Year 6 girls so far is Emily W with 2.58.72 for her 5 laps and leading the boys is Ben M-L with 2.35.84 for the 1000m.

All start times and days are on the same list as mentioned above.

Two Relay Wins at the Centrals!

Ben M-L took a fantastic 4h in the 11 boys' 1200m in a new PB of 4.03
- the first three ahead of him were all Year 7 boys

The Athletics team performed brilliantly at the Primary Sports Canterbury Athletic Championships at QEII Stadium today and we could quite easily say we are the fastest school in Canterbury! All four of our 9 and 10 year old sprint relay teams won their heats and then the 9 and 10 year girls' teams WON their finals - a feat very rarely (if ever) achieved by the same school! The boys couldn't quite match them with the 9 years team disqualified with the team winning, one they beat in the heats. The 10 boys then took a super second in their final!

Nine of our distance runners finished in the first ten in their fields of 34-36 with Alex E running a smart race to place 2nd in the 9 years, Ben M-L 4th in the 11 years and Megan A 5th in the 10 years. Sophie W ran a well timed 50m to win her eat then win the bronze in the 9 years' girls. Full results are under the Primary Results section of: http://www.primarysportscanterbury.org.nz

Two Seconds to Orienteering Team!

The final results from the Canterbury Schools' Orienteering Festival, held over the weekend, are now up and our teams took second in both the girls and boys sections - well done. For full results look at paponz.org

Sprint Orienteering

Jacob and Fergus did a superb time in the Sprint event

Moe and Liam, some of the youngest competitors competing

Another successful day today for the FOS orienteers, this time at Halswell Quarry for the Sprints event. We again had the biggest representation from any school and all children did extremely well as they had either 20 (boys) or 25 (girls) controls to find. Sam B and Ben H were tentatively in 5th place in the Boys' recording just over 12 minutes! With their performance it looks like the boys should take 3rd in the teams' race and some strong girls' results again should see them retain their second place. Congratulations to Redcliffs School who easily won both Year 6 and under grades.

Well done to all of our competitors, ranging from Year 2 to Year 6 children. Thanks to Mrs Williamson and Mrs Husband for their help today also and of course to the parents, many who had to shadow their children...and came back looking puffed! Full results should be on soon at paponz.org

Orienteering Teams 2nd and 3rd after Day One

Austin and Josh thrilled to finish the long course

After Day One of the Canterbury Schools' Orienteering Festival, the Fendalton Girls' team lies second and the Boys' team lies 3rd=. We had the biggest entry of all the schools involved at the Long Course Championships at Bottle Lake Forest yesterday.

The children found the course challenging but all of them eventually emerged from the forest with smiles on their red faces due to the very warm conditions. Our top performers yesterday in the boys' were Toby W taking 7th (18.39) and Jack M 8th (19.14) out of 41 finishers over the 1.9km course of 15 controls. Our top girls were Olivia M/Jordyn B in 9th (25.26) and Felicity vdP /Isabella G 10th (27.21) out of the 35 finishers.

Today are the Short Course Championships at Halswell Quarry.
