Cross Country

What a fantastic Cross Country! A huge thankyou to all the teachers who stepped into their roles so smoothly and professionally, to the aides who supported students with such enthusiasm, to the parents who worked on course marshalling stations, to the first aid team who treated the wounded, to the spectators who encouraged and to the people who helped with the logistics of set up and pack up. To all the students who completed the course, very well done. I saw some very impressive efforts. A big event like the Cross Country can’t run so well without a contribution from everyone. Well Done Team.
