Yesterday, 5 June 2019, we held our whole school Cross Country day. The weather was kind to us, clearing the torrential rain for a clear, sunny time for our students to participate. The school spirit was high with students, parents and staff cheering and celebrating all students along the way. Students showed outstanding sportsmanship by going back to run alongside their peers/siblings even after they had finished the course. With mandarins supplied by Kainui Orchards, the students were refuelled, and there was an overall pride and joy reflected in the students who obtained such a fantastic achievement. The IB Profile of Balanced truly shone. Well done all!
Thank you to our wonderful teaching staff who assisted on the day, but a special mention of thanks goes to Catherine, Toni, Sharon and Danny. You are the stars of our school. Thank you!
Attached is the list of the placings of the students with the distances and quantity of laps run. The inter-school Cross Country is the next step, where we would like to send students to represent our school. The students aged 4-7 will participate at Springbank School on 21 June 2019, while the students aged 8-12 will participate at Kapiro Landcorp Station, 100m down Takou Bay Road, 12 km north of Waipapa on 18 June 2019. I would like to offer the opportunity for students placed 1-4 to participate in the inter-schools competition. These competitions will be with other students from the Kerikeri District in the same age categories.
If you or your child have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact Mrs Samantha Roessler.
