This year, school sports day was on the 19th June 2017. It started at 11.00 and, for my year group, lasted for over an hour. As usual, Mr Cowap organised it for all the students to take part and this year it took place on the MUGA.
During the wonderful day, there were lots of different activities, such as the egg and spoon race, sack race, javelin throw and three-legged race; I took part in the last two races and had an awesome time! Also, there were several running races with lengths such as 50m and 100m. There were opportunities to take part in other competitions, such as skipping, hurdles, long jump and long distance.

Sports Day is a great experience not only because you get to try out new sports but also because of the atmosphere. At Sports Day, there are always people there to cheer you on and support you and this helps you to know that you can do it. Adults and parents have an opportunity to come and watch you participate in your events and be part of your celebration. Each student is allowed to choose their own events so we all feel happier and more confident when taking part. Even if you don't succeed and win the event, you will still get a treat.
Without all the parents and teachers, our Sports Day wouldn't be a success! All the students of Springhill Catholic Primary School would like to say a massive THANK YOU to you all!
