Athletics Day
By Mr Peter Currie
Newcomb Athletics Carnival
Landy Field, Monday 1 March 2021
Its Athletics season and the big question is can Harrison make it a hat trick of victories? In both 2018 and 2019, they won the overall trophy for best house in athletics. Last year, you will remember that the carnival couldn’t be held due to Covid 19. They didn’t have it their own way though in 2019. Up until the relays, the mighty frogs, Drysdale, were leading.
We would love every student in the school to get involved in this fun day. Yes, many will be exhausted by the end of it, but it will provide you with memories that will last forever.
Don’t forget to dress up in your house colours. Make sure you bring something to eat as there is no canteen this year. Bring either drinks or your drink bottle to fill up during the day.
Some questions that people have been asking: Will Mr Unmack dress in yellow?
Will Mr Murphy tell a joke over the loud hailer, has Mrs Dyer planned some “never seen before” novelty events and what interesting fact has Mr Horsted for us?
Don’t forget to have permission forms submitted via Compass by Thursday 25th February.
