One of the biggest events for every Australian school is the Sports Carnival day. At the primary level the school factions parade into their bays past a multitude of parents who are camped out for the day. The teachers set up races and relays with the kids all kitted out in their faction colours.
The rivalries are intense with screams of ‘Go Purple’ or ‘Red is the Best’. The kids are now adept at leaderball, flag relays and tunnel ball. Both Meaghan and Liam qualified for the Interschool Carnival in the distance races. Liam put in a 7th place finish against the Year fives, while Megs became the first Wattle Grove girl to ever win the Senior race.
Their school won the team title which the sports teacher attributed to the Friday run club and the ‘Canadian Bacon’ factor.
