This term, children in years 3 – 6 have been taking part in a variety of running training drills to prepare them, both physically and mentally for the PHPS Cross Country. The event is on Thursday the 21st of March at Princes Park between 9 and 11. The first race will begin at about 9.45.
If any parents are able help out please let me know. Parents play a vital role on the day, assisting the runners by directing them around the track, as well supporting with the walk to and from school.
Under 10 race – 2 km
Under 11 and 12 race – 3 km
Your child’s age group is determined by the age they are at end of this year. If they are 10 on the 31/12/19 they compete in 9/10 age group.
The 10 fastest times for each age group/gender will go through to the District event on the 2nd of May.
Please refer to the map if you want to get some training runs in before the event!
