We had two perfect Djilba days! Children were thrilled to see so many spectators and we thank you for coming.
The winning house was Dampier, followed by Forrest, Sturt & Banks.
The winner of the marching shield was Banks. Well done to all House Captains and their marching teams for giving us an entertaining start to the carnival. Forrest won back the Grand Relay trophy from Forrest with a very spirited run!
Children held up very well to keep on moving all morning and take turns in team games. Luckily the yoga and rest stations gave a bit of time to recover. The team efforts at tunnel-ball and tug-o-war were a highlight, although there was a late appeal over the House Captains vs Teachers event.
Thank you to everyone who helped pack away so well… Special thanks to those parents who came in early to set up and to the staff who gave up so much of their own time: in particular Mr Lillico for setting up the P.A. system; Mrs Barrett for setting up and working on the marshalling sheets; Mrs Rudd for doing a great job of coordinating the day and Ms Algar for backing her up.
The day cannot happen without the many parent volunteers, of which there were too many to mention. Your time is much appreciated.
Thank you if you gave any of the many positive emails or comments. These are greatly appreciated by the staff and reward the many hours of preparation needed to bring a carnival together.
