The Silverton team got to the track at 9:25am. Once we got to the track we put down our bags and immediately our 1500m runners got onto the track ready to begin. All of Silverton screamed and cheered for our runners. We started with the 9/10 year old boys and girls and then 11 year old boys and girls and finished off with 12/13 year old boys and girls. All 1500m runners ran 3 and a quarter of the track.

End of the day
Relay races were next and went from 12:00- 1:30. Sadly non of our teams made it to the finals but we still made sure to make Silverton a very proud school. After Relays we had champion ship races where each school had to pick the 2 fastest runners to compete sadly Silverton didn’t make it to the finals. After all the cheers and screams, it was time to find out what place Silverton was. Silverton had come 4th place out of 12 schools. And then at 2:30pm it was time to go home. All Silverton teachers and students were tired but still proud of each other.
