Virtual Cross Country - 22 June to 22 July 

As you will be aware, we were unable to hold our annual Cross-Country carnival last term due to the campus closure. Understandably, there were some students who were disappointed that they did not have the opportunity to participate in the carnival. We have been alerted to an online event which would provide those students interested an opportunity to participate in a virtual cross country with students from around Australia.  This is not compulsory for any KWS students and must be undertaken with parental facilitation and supervision. 

The Great Australian Cross-Country Championships provides students with an opportunity to see how they may have performed compared to other students from around Australia this year. Interested students will be required to run the designated distance for their age group and track their chosen course using a GPS tracking app. Parents must be aware that registration for students under 14 can only be done by a parent and participation will require parent supervision during the event. 

Any parents wishing their child to participate will need to register their child via the Great Australian Cross-Country Championships online. To manage the results parents will need to download the Run Keeper app on their phone. Please read privacy statements carefully if considering registering your child for this event. 

Registration details can be found on the Junior Sport Frog page under Cross Country.
