Intramural Sports

Centennial School offers students a wide variety of intramural athletics to play over lunch hours and at recess breaks. We also offer some sports which allow for students to compete against other schools within Sunrise School Division.

 

We kick off each year training grades 3 - 6 students to compete in the Sunrise School Division's Cross Country Meets. In 2023-24, both grades 3-5 and 5/6 teams attended meets. Centennial's runners performed very well, with many of our students placing in the top 10 and several students speeding to first place finishes. Most importantly, all of our runners were eminently coachable, trained hard, ran a focused race, and were excellent representatives of our school.

 

Our grade 6 students have the opportunity each year to try out for our badminton team. The 2022-23 team placed first in the Sunrise North Athletic Conference and then brought home the division banner!

 

All of our grades 5 and 6 students compete in our local track meet. Those who place go on to compete in the Sunrise School Division Track Meet. Our grade 6 team proudly brought home the Sunrise School Division banner in 2022-23.

 

After Spring Break, we start a running club, the goal of which is to prepare students to compete in the Manitoba Marathon. Each year we have students and teachers running the 5 km Super Run and the 10 km run. Sometimes we have kids competing in the relay and we have had teachers run in both the half marathon and full marathon.
