Cross Country 2020

Plus

Minus

Interesting

Crowd control easier

Students could see the course

Mr J had an awesome play list.

Being on the grass.

Being able to see all the year groups start their race

Bring your own water bottle

Participants were enthusiastic

More comfortable for children sitting on grass rather than concrete.

Intermediate students said thank you when I cheered them on

Bands for 'elite' runners

Being acknowledged as 'elite' was a neat boost

Child support being so encouraging to the laggers behinders

Our whanau who supported outside school gates

Finish line off to one side.

Mr J needs new music.

Mic to announce place getters as they arrive

Shift the finishing shute - in front of the playground? in front of the crowd?

3rd microphone at the finishing line

One teacher from each age group to stand with the finish line announcer to help identify runners as they approach the last 50 meters

Do we want the Y7-8's to have a choice for 1 or 2 laps

Give Y7-8's elite runners a scrunchy & rubber band for running the second lap
