Cross Country Timeline

Cross Country
Year 5 & 6
Term 2 and 3 - 2011

Each year we select a team of 28 Year 5 & 6 children to represent our school at the Remuera Zone Inter School Cross Country.
Our time line that leads up to this event is as follows
Tuesday 12 July – practise run at One Tree Hill Domain so the children learn about the course they are going to race.
Children build up their own personal training in the holidays as well as participate in regular fitness sessions at school.
Tuesday 2 August – second practice at the park
The actual school race is on Friday 12 August in the paddock behind the Observatory. (The races will start as soon after 9:15 as we can organise our 200 children to move up there.)
Team is selected
Zone Cross Country is on the morning of Tuesday 23 August.

Cornwall Park

What a fabulous day for an exchange! After a very wet few days we were indeed fortunate to play our exchange against Cornwall Park today. Our fields certainly dry out well...the children who played here were not nearly as mud splattered as those returning from Cornwall Park School.

There was a mix of results which the children will share with their families.

Cross Country Season

To prepare for our school cross country which leads on to the zone cross country children should now be thinking seriously about increasing their fitness.

There will be notices sent home with more information in week 9 however the following is the schedule of practices and events

Tuesday 12 July Practice One in Cornwall Park
Tuesday 2 August Practice Two in Cornwall Park

Friday 12 August at 9:30 Race Day - please note this is a date change from the initial notice at the beginning of the year because of the scheduling of choir rehearsals.
