Prep - Year 2 Athletics Carnival
Prep - Year 2 Athletics Carnival
After spending all term training and learning new skills, our Prep – Year 2 students enjoyed the chance to represent their house at the Athletics Carnival on Monday. With beautiful weather conditions, a large number of spectators cheered students on as they participated in various events during the afternoon.
This year, students participated in sprints, shuttle relays, ball games, sack races, high jump, long jump and plastic javelin throws. It was fantastic to see high levels of speed, coordination and sportsmanship displayed by students from all year levels.
At the end of the carnival, scores were tallied from all the events and the overall champion house was announced.
- Bula – 882 points
- Wira – 939 points
- Mumba – 968 points
Congratulations to Mumba who were crowned champions for 2019!
The Pacific Pulse Surf Contest has been running for 14 years and involves six primary schools from the Sunshine Coast. Each school enters a team of competitors who participate in individual and team events. This year’s contest will be held on Wednesday 30th October at either Kings Beach or Currimundi Beach (depending on conditions) and we have 48 surfers competing.
We have sponsorship opportunities available for local businesses who would like to donate merchandise or direct financial support. In return for your support, your business logo will be displayed on all promotional items including a competitor shirt, which is provided to all 48 surfers in the contest. Depending on your level of support, there are also other opportunities for your business to be promoted.
This is a great community event that is highly enjoyed by all participants. Sponsorship provides a great opportunity for businesses to connect not only with the Pacific community, but with students and parents from across the Sunshine Coast.
If you are interested, please contact either of our event coordinators – Mr Darren Hooper (dhooper@pacluth.qld.edu.au) or Mr Damian Davis (ddavis@pacluth.qld.edu.au).
