On Thursday 25 June we will be holding the St Francis of Assisi School Cross Country, at 11.05am. The whole school will participate in this event, and it will be held at Walter Park - Mairehau.

The students will be walking to and from the event. We will be departing school at 10.30 am. Kakāno and Paiāka will be returning at 12.30pm for lunch. They will have morning tea before they leave.

Tumu and Kaupeka students will take their lunch with them and return by 2.30pm. 

All students need to take a drink bottle (water only). Other optional items to include for the day are extra layers of clothing. Students are expected to come to school in their PE uniform on the day of the event.
