Cross Country ... the event!

After weeks of training, Class 20, along with the rest of Pt England School participated in the Cross Country on Thursday afternoon.  The weather was beautiful for running and all our learners did amazingly well, trying really hard and completing the whole course.

Congratulations to Nature for finishing first in the Year 1 girls race, and to Kahurangi and Siakupega for placing in the top 5 in the boys race!  It was a fun afternoon and the whole class has trained really hard for the event!

What Makes a Champion?

This term we are looking at "What Makes a Champion" as we learn about the Commonwealth countries, the Commonwealth Games and how we can all be champions.

Our PENN movie this term focuses on some of the things we have been doing, and the responses Class 20 gave when we asked them "What Makes a Champion?"

Cross Country ... the training begins

In preparation for our Cross Country race later this term we have begun our training.  We train with all the classes in Team 1 straight after morning tea.  First we assembled and Ms George told us about the training and which route we would take.  Then we had our first training session.  Everyone in the whole team did really well!

We are looking forward to our next training session tomorrow!
