Year 5 and 6 House Sports Day
Tsing Yi Sports Ground, Thursday 30th March 2023
Dear Parents and Guardians,
We are looking forward to the Year 5 and 6 House Sports Day at Tsing Yi Sports Ground.
The children should arrive at school in their PE kit ready to register with their class teacher at 8.15 am. We will then travel by bus to Tsing Yi Sports Ground for the remainder of the school day, aiming to return to DBIS in time for dismissal. Students should dress appropriately for the weather conditions and also bring a packed lunch and a water bottle. Please ensure that students bring with them a healthy lunch and ample healthy snacks so that they are properly fuelled for the events. We ask that ‘fast food’ is not supplied. There are water fountains at the venue for refilling water bottles. All students must wear their DBIS sunhat and wear sunscreen.
Throughout the day, the children will compete in a variety of running, jumping and throwing activities with which they are familiar from their PE lessons. All the children are expected to compete, and a full programme of the day is attached HERE.
Your support makes all the difference at events like these, so we welcome those parents who can join to arrive from 9am. The final events are due to finish at around 2pm and will be followed by a short presentation. Please be reminded that spectators and family members are not allowed to enter the track or the field areas for safety reasons. This also helps ensure that those recording race times and throwing and jumping distances can do so accurately.
We thank you for your support in helping with the smooth running of this event for our Year 5 and 6 children. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Kind regards,
Jon Fudge
Head of PE & Sport
