Saints Peter and Paul Cross Country Carnival new date

Thursday 5^th November (Week 4)

Let’s cross our fingers that the weather is fine next Thursday… although at this stage it’s looking like the only day they are predicting rain next week. 
As previously mentioned, we are encouraging all students to wear their house colour shirt with their sport uniform on the day. I will be meeting any interested students up on the oval next Monday and Tuesday (2^nd and 3^rd November) at 8.40am for a bit of a practise run. It won’t be the full course, but something is always better than nothing! The rough distances for each age group are included below.

5, 6 and 7 years (1 shorter lap)

8 years 1000m (1 big lap)

9 and 10 years 1500m/200m (2 big laps)

11 and 12 years 3000m (3 laps)

Unfortunately due to current restrictions in place we will be unable to have any parents in attendance.

Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions about our cross country carnival. mary.desmet@cg.catholic.edu.au
