Marathon Day

ImageChef Word Mosaic - ImageChef.com

Today we had a special day to raise money for The Little Heroes Foundation.

We had a Marathon Day by running lots of laps around the school oval. The money we raise will be going toward the purchase of a new MRI machine for the hospital and supporting the children who need to use it. Some of us dressed up as heroes  and the photo is below.

Here are some photos of us running around the oval.
   

Visit TUMBLR. to see a movie of us running.

We had a sausage sizzle on the oval to celebrate.

Super Tennis With Shane

We had  a tennis session with Shane today. We divided into two groups and did two different activities. One was hitting balls against the wall or bouncing the balls on the floor and the other was using rebound nets, a spiky ball and a net to catch the ball in. We had lots of fun as well as learning some skills for tennis. Thanks Shane for coming to our school to give us a lesson. Have a look at our TUMBLR site to view all the budding tennis stars!

Can you see anyone with potential here?
