Katikati College Cross Country

Axel Anderson —

On Thursday the 18th of May at 12:30pm the whole school walked down to Moore Park to participate in the school Cross Country. It was an exciting event that brought together students from all year groups to compete in a friendly race. The course was challenging with steep hills and rough terrain, but everyone did their best to compete in the race. The atmosphere was electric, with cheers from students and teachers alike. It was a great opportunity to push themselves and test their limits. Overall, Cross Country was a fantastic event that everyone enjoyed and will remember for years to come. We have interviewed some Year 7 and 8 students to see their perspective on this important day.
