Youth Running Series

Do you want to be on an Ellenvale sports team with a difference? The Youth Running Series is a participation-based competition where your participation gets points for the school. Junior high students run 2.3 kilometres and your time gets tracked so you can try to beat it next race. If Ellenvale gets 50 points, we get a prize! Come to room 215 today at 11:50 to find out how to be part of a team.
