Students will be back to the school by 2pm. Any parent wanting to take their child home directly from the stadium, must go to their child’s classroom teacher to sign them out in person.
This is a whole day event, so students need to be well-prepared. Please come in appropriate clothing including gym shoes, (no spikes or bare feet) and bring plenty of food, water, and sunscreen (we can hope!! :)).
Students must bring gym strip, as well as running shoes (open/non-lace up shoes or boots are not acceptable).
Parents are welcome to attend. There is ample seating in the bleachers, as well as the opportunity to come to field level to observe when your child participates in any field event. We are also looking for parent volunteers to help with giving out ribbons for the races throughout the day. If you are able to volunteer and are an approved volunteer (have completed the volunteer process for this school and Criminal Record Check-lasts 5 years), please indicate so in schoolcash, or email Mr. Marchioro (PE teacher) or your child's teacher: https://auguston.abbyschools.ca/contact/staff/auguston
Please complete consent in schoolcash if you haven't yet done so.
