The picture above is taken from the Gateshaed Primary Athletics festival which took place at Gateshead International Stadium on 23rd June 2006. The event was hugely popular and attracted 45 primary schools and hundreds of young competitors from across the borough.

The festival included a variety of events including skipping, sprint, middle distance, long jump and mini-javelin. It also gave the chance to young sports leaders from Gateshead Secondary Schools to gain experience in stewarding and officiating events.

The day was a great success and was thoroughly enjoyed by athletes, volunteers and spectators. A big thank you to everyone who made the day possible.
