Cross Country

Last week on Friday the 30th of August Paihia School, had Cross Country at the Bledisloe Domain. Cross Country is our School’s participation Day, we all run in different age groups because if the School ran all together it wouldn’t be fair on the younger children, so we do age groups the 5 yr old Boys, then Girls.  6 yr old Boys, then Girls. and so on. My age group was the 10 yr old Girls, our run was running on the Field through the gates up the Hill go along the Hill, and then go back down the Hill back through the gates and then on the Field to the FINISH LINE. My place I came was last I didn’t really care though because it’s all about participation and having fun. What I was learning was it’s not about winning it’s about having fun and giving it a go, What I enjoyed was giving it a go, What I could do better next time is to run faster.
