Colour Run -Thursday 6 April ONE WEEK TO GO!!!
It’s not too late to get involved and get fundraising. Register online here: www.myprofilepage.com.au
Please see the link for registration details.
We have 135 students registered so far – let’s get to 200 registrations SFS. If you raise $10 or more, you will win awesome prizes!! Remember, all the money we raise this year will go towards an amazing new play space for our students near the new school hall.
What should the kids wear?
The kids should wear a t-shirt in their house colour. The coloured powder will show up best on lighter colours. They can also choose to change into a white t-shirt after their cross country run but this is completely optional. The coloured powder will get on their shoes so we suggest comfy runners that you don’t mind getting a bit dirty.
Can parents watch the colour run?
Yes! Parents are welcome to watch the colour run. The PFA will be in charge of spraying the kids with the coloured powder. We don’t need parent helpers for this event but Lulli would really appreciate some parent helpers to supervise the cross country course. Please respond on Operoo if you can help with the cross country supervision.
Can we get to $10,000?
We are SO CLOSE to our target – we can almost touch it!! With a big final push this week, we believe we can hit our target and get to slime 5 amazing teachers PLUS Christine!!
Thank you to everyone for getting behind this fundraiser.
