Cross-Country

  Today we went and did cross-country. Because we went into a lockdown, cross-country was postponed, and today was the postponed date.  Before the surprise Lockdown we were given out ice cream forms for cross-country. 


On Monday they told us if we still have it at home you could bring it in with the money, some people had time to bring it in and some people did not (I did not). I couldn't run the cross-country because I had a sore hip and my friend (Te Atawhai) couldn't because she had foot sores so we were given some rubbish picks and buckets so we could pick up rubbish while we wait.


Honestly there was lots of rubbish, over the road from the park we picked up the rubbish from was a dairy so there were a lot of lolly wrappers, chip cartons,  plastic sandwich holders and cigarette butts. I was surprised how much rubbish there was, especially under the big trees with all these branches.


When it came to lunchtime the ice creams for given out because I didn't get an  ice cream. First the WAI kids lined up, WAI are the little kids they are year 0, 1 and 2, then NUI Lined up, NUI  are be middle aged kids they are year 3, 4 and some year 5s, then finally MOANA got to go, they are the oldests kids who are year 5s and 6s. 


I enjoyed cross country this year.
