As I walked over to the school on Monday morning I could hear the starters pistol ringing out. With each step, I hurried just a little more as I didn't want to miss one of my children's races.
When I rounded the corner on the south end of the school I saw a hundred plus excited children, very organized teachers, dedicated volunteers and cheering parents spread out over the school grounds. The weather was perfect a few clouds and just enough sun to get a bit of a tan. And the lack of wind ensured records would fall.
Having been out of school for 25 years and living away for most of those I was amazed to see the same family names popping up in the winners circle a generation later.
Tim Taylor and the entire staff of the Dr. Isman Public school deserve a big thanks for keeping the tradition of track and field healthy in Wolseley.
