Dear Parents
Junior School Cross Country
The Junior School Cross Country will be held next week on Friday 28 June. Year Ones will be running around the fitness track for one lap and the Year Twos will be completing two laps. The races will begin at 11:00 with classes racing – the boys and then the girls in this order:
Yr 2: Room 6 boys, Room 6 girls, Room 7 boys, Room 7 girls, Room 8 boys, Room 8 girls.
Yr 1: Room 9 boys, Room 9 girls, Room 10 boys, Room 10 girls, Room 11 boys, Room 11 girls.
Finals: Year 2 boys final, Year 2 girls final, Year 1 boys final, Year 1 girls final.
The first 3 runners from each class will be given the opportunity to run in the finals. Please remember this is a fun activity and non-competitive. All children will be praised on their achievements.
The children can dress up in their whanau colour, running shorts and shoes. They do not need school uniform on this day, however their clothes should be in whanau colours and be suitable for running. Drink bottles and a warm sweatshirt will also be needed so that we are prepared for the changeable weather! Please make sure all drink bottles and sweatshirts are named.
Parents are welcome to stay and have a picnic lunch with the children after the event.
- Please can we ask that spectators MUST stay away from the running tracks and refrain from walking across any tracks whilst the children are in their races.
If the weather forecast is not good the ‘save day’ will be the following Monday 1st July at the same time and you will be notified of this.
Kind regards
Sarah Bartholomew
