Cross Country - Monday Week 10
Cross Country- Monday Week 10
Just a reminder Cross Country is coming up in Week 10. Mrs Betts is holding Running Club on the back oval on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings (8:30am) in preparation for this. On the day, there will be age champion medals for 9,10,11 and 12-year old students. Students that are 10,11 or 12-year-old who place in the top five with a suitable time will get the opportunity to compete at the Port Curtis Cross Country Trials on Wednesday 7th May, 2025 (Term 2, Week 3) at Benaraby State School. For Port Curtis trials, all runners must be able to complete their distance without walking.
We are looking for volunteers to man checkpoints on the day. If you have completed the school’s mandatory training and would like to volunteer your time, please email Cathy Betts (cbett49@eq.edu.au).
