Cross Country Superstars

Well done to all the stars of Room 15 for their great performance in the Cross Country this afternoon.  We've been talking about being "Champions" in class and it was great to see the effort and "never give up" attitude this afternoon.  Super effort everyone!  Mrs Belt is super proud of everyone!

Cross Country 2015

Yesterday we had the Pt England School Cross Country for 2015.  After weeks of practice it was great to have the event.  Learners wore house colours for the race and the weather gods shined on us after a fairly wet morning.  This made the course pretty muddy, which just added to the fun.

Nearly finished!

 Thanks to Miss Tumahai for these great photos.  We were all very tired after our race but did an amazing job!  We wrote about the race when we got back to class.

Cross Country Training

Room 19 is joining the whole of Team 1 in preparing for the Cross Country later this term.   Most days after morning tea we go for a run around the fields.  We are learning to run slowly (or jog) to pace ourselves so we last the whole distance.

After we run, we do some stretches before we go back to class.
