The annual House Cross Country is being held this Thursday 6th April (the final day of Term 1) down at the Drysdale Recreation Reserve for all students in Years 3-6.
For many students, this is one of the highlights of the school year and for the Year 3s especially, it is their first opportunity to participate in a school sporting event. All students have spent this term training for the event and should be able to complete their race.
To successfully run this event, we require at least 6 more parents/carers to volunteer as course marshals to help students around the course. A huge thank you to the 4 parents who have already volunteered their time.
It would also be helpful to have a parent/carer to assist each class on their walk to and from the Reserve.
Any parents/carers who are able to volunteer their morning can register their details on our volunteer form – https://forms.gle/6YtoWJftqZmSWALw8
