Aquinas Cross Country

This year we are planning to hold the Aquinas Cross Country on Friday 19th May starting at 12.45pm.

A map of the course is included.  Runners will complete one and a half laps of the school grounds followed by a short detour out through the Cvitanovich corner walkway, down Alva Glenn into the gully by the playground and then back up through the gully out onto Pyes Pa Rd. From there they run back into the school grounds via the forest, before returning behind the Tech Block to the finish in the middle of the playing field.

The whole of the school will be out at the same time either running or watching.

The start times for each age group are listed below.  These are approximate times.  Parents are welcome to come and support during the day.

All students are required to run. This is a major House Event. Tutor teachers will be urged to fire up their classes this week to hammer the House point aspect and stress how vital it is to get ahead at the finish from someone of another House.

Correct House (PE) shirts are to be worn by all students Y7-Y10 Senior students no longer with fitting shirts are to be encouraged to wear a plain coloured T Shirt of their respective House Colours. We hope the weather is kind to us!

BOPSS Cross Country Tuesday 23rd May Waipuna Park

There is very little time between our school Cross Country and the BOPSS Championships being held at Waipuna Park. If your son or daughter arrives home following our school event with a letter regarding these championships, it indicates he/she has finished in the top 10 and we would therefore hope that they can represent us on Tuesday. Please get back to me on Monday 22nd May if you are able to assist with transport.

Cheers
