Eager to go the distance

08 May 2019

There is nothing quite like seeing hundreds of College boys (and some keen staff) participating in the annual cross country, running in the autumnal splendour of Hagley Park. Some boys clearly enjoy being put through their paces, relishing the thrill of the chase, while others are more reluctant participants. But this whole school event is always a highlight of the season.

Teacher, passionate runner and MiC athletics Graeme Christie masterminds the course and event, assisted by a veritable army of staff. And, as ever, Graeme thanks everyone involved for their support.

The cross country was held on Monday 6 May.
