Children – don’t forget to get your 2021 Premier’s Be Active Challenges underway. The challenge
requires individuals to record one hour of physical activity, five days a week, for ten weeks. Your log

2 and 3 during our health sessions but our older children (years 6 & 7) are expected to manage these.

SPORT DAY 2021 – FREEMAN WINS A THRILLER!
The kids were pumped for another Sports Day in 2021, chants were sung, bodies covered top to toe in colour and there
was an air of fierce competition!
The day started with tabloid events for Years 3 – 7s with the Year 6/7s recognising this would be their last ever primary
school sports day! Students enjoyed competing in the 500m, long jump, shot put, javelin, discus and high jump. They
had spent a great deal of time practising for the events in P.E lessons, perfecting their technique and improving their
times and distance.
In the morning the Reception – Year 2 students participated in the ever-popular Tri-Skills, consisting of the commando
course, rebound nets, air gym, turbo javelin, trampolines and parachute. The kids had the biggest smiles on their faces
and a great sense of sportsmanship throughout the day.
The afternoon saw the championship events with all students running in 40m/60m/80m heats. The real favourite of the
afternoon was the siblings race and the parents race! We can see where some of the talent and competitive nature
derives from! The whole school relay was a great way to show teamwork amongst Freeman, Thorpe, Meares and
Pearson from Rec – Year 7. The Tug of War was a sight to see – the kids battled until the very end!
Credit must go to Mr Grigg for his tireless efforts and true dedication to ensuring this sports day was well organised and
fun for all involved. Also, a huge well done to all of our sports captains for their organisation, early morning set up,
positive mentoring and never-ending support of their teams.
The day ended with Freeman in front, the team running a victory lap to celebrate. Well done to all the students for their
passion and dedication throughout all of the events.

SCHOOL SPORT SA KNOCKOUT BOYS CRICKET 2021
The boys had a great day on Tuesday in the double header cricket match at Aldgate Primary. Our boys were great and
played with great sportsmanship and team spirit. We had a great game with the bat and ball in both games. Well done
boys, now we’ve got a long wait until our next matches in term 4.
School Knockout cricket report 23/3/2021
On Tuesday in week 9 our SAPSASA knockout boys cricket team played cricket against saint Francis de Sales and Saint
Josephs from Murray Bridge at our school oval, and we won both of the games. All of the teams played very well and
they were both great games. Our teamwork won us the matches and our energy in the field really brought the team
together.
In the first game our team won the toss and elected to bat so our openers Finn M and Finn T went out to bat. Finn T
got out from a good caught and bowled early, but had a good start. Finn M and Darcy T started to ramp up the runs.
Finn M was hitting boundaries galore and Darcy was hitting solid 1s and 2s trying to get Finn on strike. Eventually Finn
retired for 23 and Henry came out to the crease. Henry and Darcy started a partnership and Henry started hitting fours,
and Darcy started hitting fours at regular balls. Darcy and Henry retired for 10 and 21. Our bowling performance was
outstanding with Finn T picking up three wickets and Corby chipping in with two.
Result: Aldgate won by 79 runs
In the second game, against St Joseph’s Murray Bridge, we bowled first and they batted out
the innings making 76 runs. Finn M and Corby got 2 wickets each. The batting was a combined
effort totalling 99 runs with Finn Trumbull top scoring with 15 not out.
Result: Aldgate won by 4 wickets meaning we will move on to a semi-final in term 4.
The boys had a great day out. Thanks Mr Grigg for organising the early morning training and
coaching sessions.
Henry, Tom, Finn M and Finn T

helicopter.
5. 500 metres – run one and a half laps of our oval.
