Cross Country

Our school will be holding our Cross Country event on Monday 4th March 2019. (Please note the change of date).

Middle and Senior students will run a course around the Shell Road precinct, while the Junior students will run laps inside the Shell Road Oval.  Middle and Senior students are split into age groupings not year level groupings.  They are: 12/13 years, 11 years and 9/10 years.  To make this clear to the students your child’s age group is determined they how old they turn this year. Eg If they turn 11 in August this year, they run in the 11 year group.  If they turned 9 or 10 in January of this year they will run in the 9/10 age group. Juniors will run in Year level groupings.

Approximate times for each event is as follows:
