OADV Annual Sports Day 2018 took place on Monday 2^nd July at EiS. 

Teams were split into 4 houses of St George, St Andrew, St Patrick and St David where they completed events to win points. 
Teams went into various stations and competed in activities such as long jump, agility sprint, quoit throw, bat and ball relay, high jump and bean bag target throw.  All children then raced against each other in a 30m sprint. 
To end the day we had teachers racing against each other in a 100m track and it was lovely to see our parents get involved too with mums and dads racing against each other.
In assembly Mr Pape and Mr Shaw announced winners of the various events they took part in.
The winning house was St George with a staggering 1229 points!  Second was St Andrew with 1140 points.  In third place came St Patrick with 1111 points and finally in fourth place was St David with 1013 points!  Well done to St George who received the trophy!
