The gym teachers actually listened and dropped the standard run requirement so we get to keep the fun cross just like it always has been. Honestly I was fully prepared to argue until I was blue in the face but it looks like we win this one without the extra …

Dear gym teachers, as you would have guessed, we aren't convinced at all about your idea of doing a normal cross before the fun one.

  1. We will be dead after the normal cross and you know it better than nobody else. It will therefore be impossible for us after running 1000m/1500m to dress up and have fun.
  2. All these years you totally managed to put grades to your s7 students even without the cross.
  3. It has always been an excitement for smaller children (as us some years ago) to see the s7 cross and get sweets. If you change that, you will destroy their dreams.
  4. We don't want to be your victims.

Please please please accept to make it as all the other years, otherwise we'll be sad, frustrated and demotivated :-(

I really did not think this would gain so much traction when I started typing it out in a panic during study hall but here we are. It feels wild to see that so many of you are just as worried about the cross as I am because honestly how are we supposed to run that far and still have energy to dress up and be fun. Seeing this keep growing is honestly making me feel like maybe the teachers will actually listen for once.

Please do not change this wonderful tradition. In addition, we will be receiving grades for the 20 minute test as well as the "Beep" and sprinting test. There seems to be no shortage of areas to obtain grades.

Every other S7 has been able to have only the fun cross, why does that suddenly have to change?

its our final year we deserve to have some fun without being super exhausted from a forced run beforehand. dont ruin the tradition for the little ones who look forward to the costumes every year.

I am absolutely for this petition. May I propose, that gym teachers give us the choice whether or not to participate in the 'real' cross, so as to avoid any pressure on the S7s. Also the choice would not influence the final result.
