Mike Springford Trikids Trophy


Last Wednesday, some of SFX children went to Trikids at Whanagrei Primary School.  They were very frightened and scared.  Trikids is like a triathalon.  It is a mixture of swimming, biking and running.  The run was 500m (or 2 laps), the bike was 500m (or 2 laps) and the swim was 20m or 1 length.  Year 4, 5 and 6 children compete.  The year four girls were first up.  One of our year 4 girls came second place, then it was the year four boys.  They stopped everyone at the gate once they had finished the swim section.  Isaac and Reuben were racing.  Reuben came 5th and Isaac came 6th overall.  Then it was year 5 and 6 race. It was the school with the most points at the end that won the trophy.  Whangarei Primary School won the Mike Springford Trophy.  SFX came 3rd.  Thanks to Murray Healey for organising the event.
