City Athletics Championships

Today was one of the biggest days in the City's school sport calendar. The City Athletics Championship.

It was an absolutely glorious day of weather, and that seemed to bring the best out of the children competing. A whole number of City records were broken - one twice. 

Although we do not yet know where the Oakwood teams finished (but we know it wasn't the top three) we do know that once again we had a very successful day. We now have more City Champions than ever.

Most track events had heats, followed by finals: the first three finishers from each heat progressing to the final. The long distance and field events were straight out finals - a fight for the gold. 

Whilst everybody who represented Oakwood deserves a special mention, as they did the school proud, there are a few names I will list who made the podium in their events.

Ethan - Gold - Y3 boys 60m
Praise - Gold - Y3/4 girls throwing
Marcus - Gold - Y5 boys 80m
Amy - Gold - Y5 girls 80m
Ethan/Robbie/Jola/Marcus - Silver - Y5/6 boys 4x100m Relay
Owen - Silver - Y5/6 boys 600m
Shannon - Silver - Y5/6 girls triple jump
Robbie - Bronze - Y6 boys 80m
Jola - Bronze - Y6 boys 150m

Well done to everyone who went today and represented Team Oakwood!
