On a very cold day with intermitted showers, we ran our cross country across at the Howick Domain. What would cross country be without some mud and the occasional down pour? Needless to say, it was an amazing day.
The Year 4s started off the day running in the first block, followed by the Year 5s in the middle block. Each of these year groups ran three laps around the domain, at roughly five hundred meters a lap.
The last block saw the Year 6s having a go. Due to the interschool competition, the Year 6s are required to do an additional lap to make the distance two kilometres.
All our students tried their best and it was amazing to see many students turn up and participate for this event. Many of our learners pushed themselves through the course and upon finishing, you could see the pride of their achievement all over their faces.
Special thanks to Mr Basson for leading our Cross Country training and team organisation and our staff and parents who assisted with marshalling and organisation of the day.
