Junior Duathlon

On Monday 16^th August the Year 0, 1 & 2’s took part in a Junior Duathlon (run & bike, or scooter). The students were split into year levels and gender race groups.

The students were enthusiastic participants starting with a run around the outside of Muritai School. Thank you to the fantastic Year 7 & 8 students and parent helpers marshalling the run. Once the runners entered back inside Muritai school, Mr. Bird, Mr. Skilton and some parents assisted the children in putting their bike helmets on and giving the students a push start around the muddy bike track.

Students were timed on their race for 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd place getters, with everyone receiving a participation award. Teachers and spectators were very proud of the positive attitudes we saw on display during and after the event. Well-done Juniors!
