Cross Country

School Cross Country is on tomorrow - Monday at 10am. We are having an early morning tea. The Year 8 students run first and then we go through from Year One to Year 7. Children may wear house colors to run in and bring school clothes to change into afterwards. All children must wear running shoes and bring a plastic bag to put their wet muddy clothes in once they are changed. Remember to bring along a named cup as the PTA will be supplying a hot Milo for after the race.
