Did you know, at the Mitcham Camp, 100 years ago, the soldiers-in-training also enjoyed the fun of Sports Day! From some old photographs we can see that they also did tug-o-war, boxing (!) as w
ell as some strange event involving a wheelbarrow, a big stick and a bucket of water! Room 23 particularly enjoyed the tug-o-war against the parents as well as all their regular events, and the whole school provided some other exciting moments for our film.
