As always you are more than welcome to come along and support our children on this fun and exciting day. If you plan to take your child home before school finishes on this day then can you please notify the classroom teacher in writing before the day.

 

All children are expected to be wearing their House T shirt for this event and students from Years 5 – 8 are expected to wear their school sports shorts (If your child does not have these then they are available to purchase from the school office). Please ensure your child also has warm clothing to wear before and after their run and suitable footwear as they are unable to run in bare feet.

 

If you have any questions regarding this then please contact your child’s classroom teacher.

 

Regards
