 What happens at cross country

What happens at the cross country?

When we want to go to the cross country the teacher hands out cross country notices to the people that want to go through to cross country. The teacher gives them out and we put them in our bag to take to our parents, then we get our parents to sign the cross country notice so when you parent signs bring it back to your teacher so they know that you’re going so they can put you on the cross country list, so they could expect you to go.

What we take to cross country:

When we go to cross country we take our bags, inside our bags we take our lunch and our drink bottles also the teachers bring a tarpaulin in case the grass is wet. Some fruit for the kids that want some of the kids that didn't bring their lunch.  Also the teachers bring a list so they know that everyone is there and that they’re safe because if they’re not? OPSIE!!! I wonder what's going to happen the teachers are going to have to go look for them?. 

What we do - well we wait:   

First, we put the tarpaulin down then we put our bags on it so when the grass is wet we don't have to carry our bags all around, well we wait so we could have our turn to do our run. When we wait some people go and eat their lunch before they do their run, or they just go and buy them something to eat. Well, some people are running the others cheer them on because they want to, some people are just sitting down and being nervous or just relaxing before and after their own races.

What happens during the bus trip:

When we're all on the bus the bus is usually loud sometimes somebody sings our kapa haka song on the bus it is really fun but sometimes it can be too loud, some people are just sitting down and being quiet and the rest of the people are being loud. I'm quite sure the teachers get sick of all the loud noise on the bus.  Some people are sneaking food or fizzy drinks on the bus - NAUGHTY? Kids, when we are on the bus most of the kids want to sit at the back because they think they are cool but they're not well (maybe kind off).

What year goes first when we are in cross country:

When were at the cross country we always start with the juniors then we go to the seniors. It goes year 5 boys then year 5 girls, then we go year 6 boys then year 6 girls, then we go year 7 boys then year 7 girls last but not least we have year 8 boys then year 8 girls here is all of the youngest to oldest cross country order.

Conclusion:

So there you have it five reasons as to what happens at cross country these reasons will help you know what happens at cross country. And for you to go and have a go.
