Amesbury School Cross Country

On Tuesday, we successfully completed our Amesbury School Cross Country. Congratulations to all our students who put in their best effort in real cross country conditions.

On Tuesday, it was great to see so many students eagerly participating in our school cross country and finishing with big smiles on their flushed faces. Despite the cold and the rain, students persisted and completed all the races with really positive attitudes. Congratulations to all the students who braved the weather and did their utmost during this event.  A huge thank you also to all the parents who were out there supporting our tamariki with a special mention to Belinda who did many laps running alongside and encouraging the runners.
