Our annual cross country was held on 11 July (Friday) at Innova Junior College. The whole school gathered together and the students were flagged off by our Principal, Mr Loke, according to the four categories – B Girls, C Boys, C Girls and B Boys. The teachers came in their sporting attires and participated as well. 

Our NPCC cadets directed the students as route marshals along the 3.4km route for the girls and 3.6km for the boys. The Red Cross members also provided first aid at strategic locations along the route. A water point was stationed at mid point so that students could hydrate themselves along the run.

The dark cloudy sky threatened to pour, yet it did not and we were blessed with shade and breeze for the event. After the run, the whole school gathered back and was entertained with cheerleading, led by the Sports Leaders. Mr Pradeep and Mdm Wati also lighten the spirit with their interesting commentary and music. The top 25 students of each category were awarded a medal, as the top 3 male and female teacher runners.

 Our fastest boy, Ahmad Syahir from 4L1, clocked a timing of 12mins 36s in the B Boy category. B Girls were led by Oh Suxian Joy from 4M5, C Boys by Abdul Rauff from 2L2 and C Girls by Nurul Syahidah from 2M1. Our top male and female teacher runners are Mr Dennis Toh and Ms Lee Si Wei, both from Polaris House.
