Annual Inter-House School Cross Country.
Our annual Inter-House school cross country will be held on the afternoon of Friday 26th of May 2017 in the Redwoods Forest. This event is for Yr 3-6 students.
Children need to be assembled in house groups at our school ‘HQ’ near the Redwoods Visitor Centre, Long Mile Road by 12:50pm ready for a briefing. The first race will be at 1:00pm with the event finishing by 2:30pm.
