Term 3 has started and it is nearly cross-country time!
We have been enjoying some wonderful winter sunshine and today we got serenaded by Steffen while we ran our laps!
We have a great incentive with our cross country running this term - we are aiming to run as much of NZ as we can. We have 5 different routes to take... we could choose from top of the north island to the whole of the north island and south island.
Koka Ngaire found out what the kilometre distance between each town would be and each lap that we do in practice is worth 20km of the total distance.
We had to use some maths skills to add up the distances on our route and then we divided by 20 to work out how many laps we had to do each week. Some of us went a step further and found out how many laps we need to target each time we run.
We are all pretty keen to see how far we will end up running by the time our school cross country comes around in Week 6!
Hi my name is Cilla and I go to Tautoro school I am a year 8 student. I really like the way how you guys are doing cross country just like us students at Tautoro school we have to run around a big paddock 2 times. Our school is in the country so we have our own paddocks. Our cross country is on Tuesday and Thursday this week.I am using Tania's laptop to type my comment as I don't have a chromebook yet.
