FUN RUN
This year the fun run took place on the 22nd of October. The
morning officially started at 8:00 am with the Vorschule, Grade one
and Grade two learners. They ran a number of laps on a smaller
part of the track on the bottom soccer field. They enjoyed it very
much and it was a lot of fun as parents and teachers watched them
complete their laps as quickly as possible. We then had an awards
ceremony where medals were handed out to the boys and girls of
each grade who finished first, second and third.
8:30 was the start for the guest runners as well as the Grade
eleven learners. This year 75 guest runners participated. Grades four
to ten followed after at ten minute intervals.
This year the track was simplified and it was good to run on
the new paved road at the front of the school. This did, however,
shorten the route and so one can conclude that a zig-zag route on
the Oktoberfest parking cannot be avoided.
By 11:00 the morning was over. Everything ran smoothly and I
think fun was had by all. I look forward to next year’s Fun Run.
