cross country

BAM! Went Mr Burts Clapper to go.

On Thursday the 11th, our whole school did cross country at school. It was a  good day to run because it was really sunny and bright. When we were sitting down we had to sit down in our house colours Takitimu (Yellow), Tainui (Blue),

Te Arawa (Red) and  Matatua (Green). I’m In Takitimu ( Yellow).

We had to run in our year levels. At the start of the race the year 7 girls had to line up on the starting line on the field. We all sprinted to the corner,  all of us were trying our best and some were jogging. When we were walking up the field, all of the girls had butterflies in their stomachs.

When it was the second lap of the cross country mostly everyone was were walking. everyone was running, Jogging, sprinting and walking. When we running we had to past every teacher that were on the field. The teachers were there so they can direct us where to go.

Mrs Va'afusuaga only takes the top 3 to Inter-Zone. After the run, the whole school was tired and sweaty. everyone was really thirsty and hot. When the runners got their water they didn't drink it, They splashed it on their faces so they can be warm. When we were all sitting down Mr Burt said a Pray so we can go. Mrs Va’afusuaga told all of the house captains to do the house chant.

At the end of the day every one was really tired. I was really proud of myself when I came 6th. I was really disappointed when there are only 3 people allowed to go to the Inter zone races.
