Athletics

Yesterday my school had an athletics day.
The events were 100m, 200m, 400m, High jump, long jump, Discus and Shot put.

For the events we were split up into groups, there were Yr7 girls, Yr7 boys, Yr8 girls and Yr8 boys.

First we did the 100m and 200m sprints, then we went onto our field sports.

My group started with shot put, then discus, after discus we went on to high jump followed by long jump.

I enjoyed athletics and can't wait to do it next year.
