The Primary School Sports Day (Year 3-7) is conducted on a participation basis with all children encouraged to take part in all events, except the Championship Sprints and Team Relays. These events are contested by the fastest runners from each year level.

Although the main emphasis is on enjoyment, improving personal performances, skill development, fitness and participation by all, the Primary section of the school (Year 3-7) competes in a House competition. All children contribute points to their House for each event in which they participate.

Once again, the Junior Primary  used TriSkills for their activities (R-Yr2).  The feedback from staff, students and parents was once again very positive. The activities were based on skill development, fun and participation by all. Nevertheless, the students were very keen to succeed and they tried very hard to achieve their best.

2002 Final Results

This year's result was extremely close, with the leading House changing throughout the day. At the end of the day, when all the scores were added up, it was victory to Shepherd for the second year in a row.

The school would like to thank all of the parents who assisted in any way on Sports Day. Without their willing support many aspects of Sports Day would not be possible.

Congratulations also to the dedicated House Captains who worked so tirelessly in the weeks leading up to Sports Day. Their organization and leadership skills  were also appreciated on Sports Day itself.
