JUMPING TO VICTORY

On Tuesday, Downderry was represented by a team of pupils at an indoor athletics competition at Bonus Pastor. The team had to run, jump and throw in a series of track and field challenges. The whole team tried their hardest and supported each other tremendously, and as a result won the competition! A special mention must go to Ian who scored 83 on the speed bounce, Steven who threw the javelin over 16 metres, and Neolani who jumped 1.9 metres in the standing long jump.  Well done to the whole team!

THE NEED FOR SPEED TO SUCCEED

The sports hall athletics festival was hosted by Bonus Pastor in their amazing sports hall. They welcomed a number of young leaders from the school who assisted in organising the events that included javelin, basketball chest push, speed bounce, long jump and then a host of different running events. The field events were first and it was amazing to watch all of the pupils mixing together and helping each other from the different schools. Next up were the track events and the atmosphere was electric! All schools were really cheering on their team and the noise was really loud! The winners, Downderry, received a gold medal each and a trophy for their school. The runners up were presented with silver medals.

Well done to all the children who competed. You all showed a brilliant effort and amazed all of the supporters with your speed and teamwork.
