The Amazing Race
Postponed from Tuesday of the Cultural week The Amazing Race took place in Week 10 at Thursday lunchtime all around the school.
Each station was designed by a year 7 or 8 group of students. They researched a country of choice and developed a quick and fun challenge for participants to complete. The event started in the library with competing pairs going out in waves to different country starting points. Over 20 good friends signed up to put their friendship to the test and there were around 20 countries represented. Ms Gardiner timed each pairs starting time and ending time to work out the 5 winners who completed their circuit the fastest! The fastest teams won 10 thousand dollars of fake money and a prize!
Here are the winners :
First place :
Circuit 1 : Srishti & Elodie Y8 = 14mins
Circuit 2 : Valentina & Charlotte Y8 = 13mins
Circuit 3 : Teya & Ruby Y7 = 18mins
Circuit 4 : Emmi & Jemima Y10 = 10mins
Circuit 5 : Phoebe & Erin Y9+8 = 13mins
A HUGE thank you to the year 7s and 8s that made it all possible, as well as staff and seniors that helped out!
As the original show's tag line goes:
Remember it's not how far you go...but what happens along the way!
