MEADOWBANK!!!!











On the 27th of May we went to the Interscholastics Athletics competition at Meadowbank. There is a huge track called the tartan track. It was used for the Commonwealth Games a long, long, long, long time ago. We were competing against 13 other schools. There were 13 people in the team but the whole of P7 came to watch. The first event was the 150m sprint. Whisky came 2nd for the girls and Adder came 3rd for the boys. Here are the other events and the results.

High Jump: A boy in P6 came first but we can't tell you his name. Whisky came 2nd for the girls.
Long Jump: Adder didn't get ranked but for the girls Bramble won.
80m Sprint: We thought Bracken came 4th but the judges didn't count her. Ally McCoist didn't get ranked but he still ran fast.
Tug of War: Human Nessie, Chris Boyd, Paul Burn, Saltire and a boy from P6 came 4th.
600m: Bramble stormed into 1st place. It was REALLY SCARY because a girl fainted but she was alright. A boy from P6 came 5th.
Cricket ball: Nettle came a respectable 4th and another boy from the class below came 2nd. He threw over 40m. WOW!
Relay: There were 4 people in the mixed 400m relay team. In the starting position there was Bramble and 2nd Ally McCoist 3rd was Whisky and 4th was Adder. We came 2nd.

AND GUESS WHAT WE WON!!!!!!!

IT WAS THE FIRST TIME WE'VE WON FOR 10YRS
