3-6 PLC Athletics Carnival Information
The Primary Interhouse Athletics Carnival will be held next Thursday 1st June (Week 7). The focus of the carnival is student participation and a positive sport experience. A few events will take place prior to the carnival next week. Information regarding the carnival was emailed home to parents recently.
Students wishing to nominate for these events will need to email Lisa Muir lmuir@pacluth.qld.edu.au to register.
Details of the pre-carnival events are as follows:
10-12 Years 1500m – District Selection – Tuesday 30th May – (7.15am – 8.15am, before school – Meridan AFL fields)
Students wishing to compete in the 1500m at the Independent District Carnival will need to attend this trial. Age champion and house points are not awarded for this event as this is only for district selection.

Well done to Ashlan Hill (Under 11 Girls) and Emma Duddridge (Under 10 Girls) who both broke long-standing records on the day.
Sunshine Coast Marathon
PLC will once again enter a team to compete at the upcoming Sunshine Coast Marathon on Sunday 13th August 2023. This will be the culminating event for students who have attended Run Club. We would also encourage any other interested students to join us by entering if they are keen runners. There are a range of distances available on the day: 2km, 5km, 10km and 21.1km (age dependent).
Mrs Kiernan has set up a team for the event, please search for “PLC Run Club 2023”. When entering your child please select this team and you will receive a 10% discount off your entry price. Parents are more than welcome to enter and run as part of this team as well.
On the day, PLC will have a tent set up where we can meet, and some refreshments will be provided for students after the race.
It would be great to see as many of you as possible come along and celebrate a great year of running.
