Tryathlon

 BELL BLOCK SCHOOL TRYATHLON!

On Friday, Week 8 of Term 1 Bell Block

 School participated in the annual Tryathlon!

They had an amazing Tri - Athlete named Clark Ellyce come and talk to us about Tryathlon's and the Weetbix Tryathlon. He had some awesome gear that was passed around the crowd while he talked of his experiences and answered questions.

Just a few days later it was time for Bell Block School to have their own Tryathlon. Bikes were lined up, Togs were put on and runners were putting on their running shoes. Energy was in the air and all of Bell Block School was ready to race.

The swimmers went first, running to the back entrance of the pools from the goal post. By then the bikers were already on their bikes and ready to go. Soon enough the swimmers tagged their team mates and some of them jumped on their bikes themselves, continuing on the fun Tryathlon circuit.

The bikers raced around Bell Block, heading down Kingsford Street to Cassia Place. They zoomed around the track and then headed back to school, to tag their runners or do the three laps of the school themselves.

Room 10 got a variety of 1st, 2nd and 3rd places, they were all very proud of each others achievements. Then they headed home for a well deserved break in the weekend.
