Junior Cross-Country Race Day:

This was most anticipated by our competitive lot of runners.
Many took part in the early morning before-school practice sessions with senior school students!
Students ran in year levels after completing warm-up stretches and finished with some fun 'wind down' activities. For some, the highlight was just wearing their whanau t-shirts!

N.B. for our overseas followers... and there are now a lot of you... 
'whanau' is Maori for 'family' and it is our house system with students from every year level and 
Year 6 Whanau Leaders chosen and voted by teachers and peers. [pronounced Far-no although some still incorrectly say Far-now!]]
