Children are to wear their school sports uniform, which must include their school hat. Each child will also be required to pack their snack, lunch & water bottles. Depending on the weather, it may be advisable for students to bring a coat. Please attach a small safety pin to their sports top for ribbons.
Athletics day requires large volunteer numbers in order to run the events smoothly and within the time constraints of the day. Volunteers who are registered with the school are asked to nominate which area they would prefer to assist in - Junior or Middle/Seniors, along with a time estimate for when you are available on the day. Volunteers wishing to help with the Juniors will assist directly with modified athletic events their child is involved with on the day. They can meet their child's teacher on the infield. Parent volunteers of middle/senior students will be given a specific job on the day and emailed directly by Sam Scott.
Parents are encouraged to take their child/ren home from Landy Field at the conclusion of the day. This will assist in the coordination of buses that are returning to school. If you plan to take your child/ren home from Landy Field at the conclusion of the day, please indicate on the Operoo form. This will help to save costs on unnecessary bus orders.
Kind regards,
Sam Scott
Sports Coordinator
