Running club starts in week 5 of Term 1 each year.

This is a great opportunity for students who are interested in taking up running as a sport, eager to improve their fitness. We also encourage joggers and walkers to join.

Due to other school commitments this club will be before school. We will run once a week on a Thursday morning from 7.45am-8.15am.  Please see the running route, jogging route, and walking route for more information.

As it is a before school commitment, students will need to ensure that they arrive on time.  We will meet outside the hall and leave at 7.45am sharp. Students are encouraged to run/walk at their own pace and therefore at times may be by themselves.

Students who arrive late, i.e. after we have left, must not run the course on their own as we will not know that they are out running, and this becomes a safety issue. 

Please note that students run in their P.E. gear but MUST bring their full school uniform to change into before the start of the school day.

Due to the safety aspects and before school commitment they need their parent’s permission to be part of this club. Permission slips are handed out early in Term 1. Parents of the group are most welcome to join us on this run. There is no charge.

The first run will be this Thursday 14th March (only if they have returned the permission slip).
