Halswell Cross Country is on Monday 6th of May (Week 2 of Term 2). See below for more details.

Our Halswell Cross Country will be taking place early next term at the Halswell Quarry on Monday 6th of May (Week 2 of Term 2). All students in Years 4-8 will be encouraged to participate and give it a go. This is a fun school event.

Children will be walking down to the Quarry at 11.30am. They will be walked through the course at 12pm, with racing starting at 12.30pm. The schedule for the races is below. Please remember these times are only approximate and they may be running earlier or later. Year 4 children will be racing in the middle at about 1.20pm. The races for them are non-competitive, meaning they can not qualify for the Zone event.

Schedule:

12.40pm Year 5 Girls

12.50pm Year 5 Boys

1.00pm Year 6 Girls

1.10pm Year 6 Boys

1.20pm Year 4 Girls

All children are expected to run this race, if they are unable to due to illness or injury please let their T group teacher know via email or a note. Children will still be expected to come down and help out and support their peers.

It would be great to have as many of you down there as possible to support our children. Parents are welcome to take their children home from the Quarry, following their race. If you choose to do this, it is crucial that you let the T group teacher know on the day.
