Athletics 2006
(Thanks to our expert photographers Pam and Kelsi)

Lots of runners entered the open 1500 metres to start the athletics competitions. Here are Jemma and Zara leading the bunch through.	But, out in front there is.... Danielle Le Lievre!
These boys pushed themselves hard in the 1500m: Caleb, Rhys, Daniel and Kurt.	Here's Steffi Rogers cleaning up the 200m.
Chris Johnston on his way to winning the 13 yr old boys' high jump.	Vicky R does well in the 8 yr high jump.
They're off in the 80 metres sprint. Here are Abby, Holly (who won), Aroha, Taylah and Courtney getting a quick start.	Good techniques here at the first baton change in the inter-house relay. Kowhai won!
Stephen Glassbrook lunges over the line to win the 100m final from Liam Richards. The judges watch closely.	David Ernest takes out the 13 yr olds sprint from Stefan Etter.
Tawa house inspires Rhona and Zoe to don blue face paint.	And Rimu wears green... Meron, Danielle and super-rimu Kate.

Karis powers to a win in her sprint. Her cheeky tee shirt reads on the back "You r now losing to Tawa!"	Christine Tipper puts her hardest. Mrs Shaw keeps an eye on whether she is following the rules
Guy's face shows his effort in the long jump. Go Guy!	You're joking Jemma, right?
Karis shows Alex her dreams! Hmmm thinks Alex.	Kate cheats, wearing her super-rimu costume to fly 1 metre 30 in the standing jump. What would you have got without it Kate???!!
Oli gives it his best shot! Even with the adrenaline grunt!	Sam leaves her hair behind as she soars through the air.
