PSC Athletic Sports 2008: Fendalton Success!

Wow, we had amazing results at the ANZ Primary Sports Canterbury Athletic Sports today. Out of the 176 schools that were represented (lots of schools had nobody there) we won two relays - not matched by any other school that goes up to Year 6! We also won three individual titles as well and had a third and fourth from two of our other relay teams. Well done team!

A big thanks to all the parents who came to support us and especially to Margaret Coard who recorded all our results and came on the bus with us.

Ex Pupil Helps Athletics Team

Ex pupil Margot Gibson came to help out the Athletics team last Thursday. Margot, now a Year 11 at St. Margarets, still holds our Junior 60m and 1000m records. Margot is the current NZ Sec. Schools Junior Cross country Champion, North and South Island Colgate Games Champion in Grade 13 for the 800/1500m and the Inter Provincial Grade 13 Athletics Champion. She gave us some hints about relay running and then helped out our long jumpers.

Margot leaves next Saturday to represent New Zealand in the Pacific School Games in Canberra.
