2023 Athletics Carnival

As you would be aware in 2023 our Athletics Carnival has been moved from Term 2 to Term 1 due to venues being unavailable due to World Cup being hosted in Sydney. In preparation for our Redlands Athletics Carnival we will be running Field Event Pre Trials for the following events;
Shot Put
Long Jump
High Jump

Students will undertake a unit of Athletics in their PE lesson in Term 1 2023 reinforcing what was taught this year in High, Shot, Long and Discus with the only difference being the finalists for the carnival are not selected in PE lessons as they were this year.

The exciting element about these pre trials is that by devoting specific time to these individual events students will have multiple attempts, but also have their 3 or 4 attempts measured on the day providing feedback.

If you would like your child to trial in the following field events you will have to register them. Once registrations close that is final, no late entries are accepted. Reminders for registration will come through Noteday, PE classes, class teachers and through Pulse.

Discus and Turbo Jav will be held on the day of the carnival and students can register in person on the day at this event using their entrant number.

You may enter 1 or all of these trials in your correct age group on the correct day.

Not everyone who attends these trials will progress through to the finals but you will earn colour house points for trialing regardless of result.

For age groups it is the age your child turns this calendar year (For example if you child turns 10 next year (2023) they will compete in the Under 10’s age group). The age group is determined by the year they turn in the year 2023.
