Senior Cross Country - For students in Years 4 to 6.

Date: Friday 9th June (Save day: Monday 12th June)
Location: Freyberg Park (Students will be walking down with their classes)
Time: 11.00am

Run order:
1) 8 Year old Girls
2) 8 Year old Boys
3) 9 Year old Girls
4) 9 Year old Boys
5) 10+ Girls

The first race will start at 11am and then each race will follow on as the previous one finishes, therefore we cannot give you the exact starting times for each race.

Students are encouraged to wear their house colours and they can get as creative or wacky as they want as long as their clothes are suitable to run in. Students will also be required to wear suitable shoes to run in, so no bare feet, jandals, sandals, flip flops, gumboots, snow shoes, flippers or high heels. We also highly recommend they bring a named drink bottle along with them.

For those wishing to sneak in a bit of extra training, see below for the course map. Please note, the courses are subject to change on the event day due to potential hazards, adverse weather or areas blocked off for construction.
