Practising for Athletics

We learnt to run fast by using the power of our elbows! Maihi and Shalom were super fast. "We had to sprint like a cheetah," said Cohan.



"It was fun doing long jump because it felt like I was flying in the air. I got fourth at our athletics. I was really happy about that." -Zara.

I had a very long jump and I felt proud of myself for jumping that far. I came fourth on Athletics Day too. I went to Counties for high jump and short sprints. On Athletics Day Mr Melrose whispered in my ear, 'Try and imagine it in your head you getting over the jump." And I made it. I gave Mr Melrose a big smile and a high five. -Maihi

I loved doing long jump. I practised hard to do it and thought I would be able to jump pretty far. I tried my best on Athletics Day. - Connar


"It was fun doing the long jump. When you jump in the pit the sawdust feels nice and smooth. You have to do a big sprint before you jump. If you don't do a run up you can't jump high or long."- Brooke
