NPS Cross Country
We are now in Cross Country season at school and have our school carnival coming up soon. The NPS Cross County Carnival will take place on Friday 19th May on school grounds. Students have been and will continue to train and practice for this event during PE and Daily PE. We suggest students who have their PE lesson in the morning to bring spare socks due to the wet mornings at the moment.
Students are to wear their uniform and running shoes, bring a large drink bottle, spare shoes and socks, warm clothing and house colours are encouraged. Students with asthma need to bring their puffers.
Parents and spectators will be encouraged to attend this event, with a cordoned off section for viewing. This will allow spectators to see both the start and finish of the events. There is no limit to the number of spectators per student, however, please stay home if you are feeling unwell. We appreciate your assistance with this.
The structure of the day is below. It should be noted that spectators will not be able to leave/enter the viewing area during race times.
| 9.00 - 10.00 | Grade 1/2 races |
| 10.15 - 10.45 | Prep races |
| 11.40 - 12.50 | Grade 3/4 races |
| 1.50 – 3.00 | Grade 5/6 races |
Kinder Fankhauser and Kinder Williams will be running their events on Thursday, 18th May at 2:00pm.
