On Tuesday St Mary's school went to the high school for athletics.First we sat on the concrete and Mrs Payne explained what we were going to do.Our first event was the long jump. We ran and when we almost got to the sand we jumped. Some of us liked the long jump because you got to run. Some of us didn't like jumping.Next we went to softball and quoits throw. After that we had luch and then we did running races 200m and 60m. Maggie won and Leila came second in the girls. Kirk won the five year olds and Brayden won the six year olds. Jakeb and Robert were really proud of themselves because they got past Makaira and Jack. We had a go at the high jump too.At the end of the day we walked back to school and played on the playground. We were hot and exhausted. Some of us went home with our Mums and Dads and Grandmas.
