WINGS NEWSLETTER Vol 18, Term Two, Week Six, 10 June 2022
Dear Parents and Friends of Sunderland, This week we held Cross Country, where the entire school except for the preschool, engaged in our annual fun event. With nearly 600 students involved with the event, it is a similar size to Athletics Day. Mr Keen and the PE staff, plus the Sports Council and the College Leaders, all arrived around 7.00am on Wednesday to assist in setting up the course. We were able to run four periods before lunch and then, after a quick food stop and break, each year group took their turn to race around the course. Some students are fitter than others, but most people participated and gave it a go. There are some who are all-out competitors, and others for whom just completing the course is a real achievement, too. Here at Sunderland, it is all about the House Competition; the number of laps you can complete for the House Relay!
At Orange Level, ACG Sunderland is working hard to protect our students and staff. All students and staff must wear a face mask in common areas like hallways, the library, reception, decks, Atrium/ Wings Café, and assemblies held in the gymnasium. To protect yourself and the Sunderland community please keep up healthy habits like social distancing where possible, stay home if unwell, hand sanitizing or washing hands, coughing or sneezing into your elbow, keeping doors/ windows open where possible to improve ventilation, and keep up with your vaccinations.
