Junior and Senior Cross-Country at Sorauren Park

Cross Country season is about to start at Fern.

Students from grade 4 to grade 8 are invited to come out and practice running every Tuesday and Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to 8:45 a.m. at Sorauren Park. Fern coaches this year are Ms. Cen, Ms. McKeown , Mr. Cline and Mr. Nikolajevic.

Our first practice will start on Thursday, September 16. Please meet us at Sorauren Park. After practice, teachers will walk with the students to the school. If it rains, we might still practice outside. If the rain is heavy and if there are thunderstorms, please meet us at the school by the office for an indoor practice.

Our first competition is on October 4 at Centennial Park. All students, who practice on a regular basis, are allowed to compete. Grade 4, 5 and 6 students will run 2000 metres and grade 7 and 8 students will run 3000 metres. If the runners qualify, they will compete at the Conference Finals (Oct 12) and City Finals (Oct 21).
