Pūtahi Rua (Year 2) and Pūtahi Toru (Year 3) Cross Country Race was held on Friday 3 July.

It was wonderful to see so many parents and extended family come and support the students for this event. Many of the races were keenly contested with the leaders changing throughout the races. The Year 2 students ran two laps of the back field while the Year 3 students completed three.

Students trained for this event each day as part of their fitness programme.  Some students also chose to train after school and in the weekends with their families.  In the three weeks leading up to the event, both students and teachers noticed a huge improvement in stamina and general fitness levels.
