Play Day for Robertson _Memorial School's primary students turned out to be a huge success last Wednesday. The weatherman was in an agreeable mood as the children took part in plenty of fun filled games. Among the many activities was the bean bag toss, which was not quite as easy as the youngster above thought. Another game some of the younger students found challenging was passing the ball over their head and then through their legs (top right). But the most exciting game of all was the wheelbarrow race which took muscle from the bottom person, and in some cases, patience from the person acting as the pusher.
