Walk-a-thon Theme: Dress as a Movie or TV character

Walkathon sponsorship cards will be coming home with students tonight. Please ask sponsors to complete their details and amount donated on the card. Although we would love to raise a significant amount of money again this year, please only seek support from family and friends. Door knocking and approaching strangers by students is not encouraged. Any monies raised should be returned to school along with the completed sponsor form before Friday November 24.

A reminder that we warmly invite all family and community members to dress up – Movie or TV character theme, and join with the students to walk from 9.15 – 11.15.

A coffee van will be available during this time and for the duration of the fete for the purchase of hot and cold drinks.
