Indoor Athletics
The indoor athletics event is a very popular event at PEPS so the children were extremely excited to go and compete. Just like every year, the event was split into two days: Year 5/6 and Year 3/4. This event is made up of field events such as speed bounce, standing long jump and vertical jump. The track events consisted of a number of different relay races such as over under relay, 1 + 1 lap relay and 4 x 1 lap relay. These events were all calculated on a points system.
We attended the afternoon session at Eston Sports Centre which consisted of 19 teams. Both teams performed outstandingly well in the track events, but looking to improve in the field events for next years competition. The Year 3/4 team finished in 10th place and the Year 5/6 team finished 6th.
Mr Lovatt, Mr Storey and Mr Holmes were extremely pleased with the way that every team member showed determination and resilience. Well done to all the children who represented the school!
