School Athletics - Reminders

By Sara Quelch | Posted: Wednesday October 18, 2023
We are all really looking forward to the Athletics Sports on Friday 20th October at the Caledonian sports ground. Below are a few reminders;


- students need to be at the Caledonian by 8.50 am. They need to make their way to the stand and find their class teacher to sign in.


- Logan Park Drive will be very congested on Friday morning - please bear this in mind with your travel arrangements to and from the grounds and allow plenty of time to get to the grounds. 


- Students need to prepare for all weather conditions; bring warm clothing and sun hats. They are to be in their Balmacewen PE gear. Absolutely no Face paint. Students are not allowed to wear spikes for the running events.


- Please ensure your child has a substantial lunch and snacks for the day as well as a named drink bottle. There will be no food available at the ground.


- Students will be released at the end of the events to go home. Again please let teachers know if you have alternative arrangements for their pick up.


If you need to contact your child's teacher on the day, please contact the school office who will make direct contact with the teachers at the event. If your child is absent please follow the usual absence process.


Please feel free to come along and watch the events on Friday - it is always great to have whanau support.


If necessary: Postponement information will be posted on our facebook page in the morning on Friday 20th October
