Athletics Carnival


It's a beautiful day, the sun is shining, and the season is right for the annual athletics carnival. All the kids are out in their sports house colours. Caitlin being yellow for Newcombe.

It starts with the 90mtr age race. Caitlin lines up, takes her mark, and when she does cross the line, she gets a ribbon for having a go. Good on you honey!

Then it's time for the much anticipated novelty events. Bring on the sack race, the egg & spoon race, the relays and tunnel ball. I was a very proud mummy when she crossed the line first in the egg & spoon event. Caitlin was focused, concentrated, and walked like an Olympic demand! You go girl!

Apparently though, the best thing about Athletics Carnival day is not the race, the novelty events, or the ribbons... it's getting to go home early with your mum!
