Cross Country Year 5 & 6
Term 2 and 3 - 2012
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 26 June – practice 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 during the holidays as well as participate in regular fitness sessions at school.
Tuesday 31 July – second practice at the park
The actual school race is on Friday 10 August in the paddock behind the Observatory. (The races will start as soon after 9:15 as we can organise our 192 children to move up there.)
Team is selected
Zone Cross Country is on Tuesday 28 August.
