Cross Country is supposed to be on July 5th but since the weather was bad it was post paloned to the 27th of July.

Cross Country is a race where you only compete against your year in school e.g I’m a year 6 girl so I competed against the other year 6 girls. In Cross Country year 0 – 3 run at the school and year 4 – 8 run at Totara Park. Year 6’s are supposed to run 1.5km but if you are injured you do not have to run in the race. While you are waiting for your race you will be sitting in your house colour which is either Tawa, Kowhai, Rimu, or Kauri. When you cross the finish line at Cross Country if you are in the top ten you will receive the number that you came. If you are in the top 3 then you will receive a certificate at assembly. In assembly some people will receive prizes for things they did during the race e.g helping someone instead of finishing the race.
