MINGARA RELAY TV
6:00-8:00pm Friday 13 November 2020
Each year Henry Kendall High School puts together a team to raise funds for the Relay for Life event held at Mingara. It's an experience that stays with our students forever. The event celebrates survivors and recognises the unsung heroes - their carers. Henry Kendall has a proud history of raising funds to support people affected by cancer and fund research. While it is disappointing that there is no live event this year due to COVID restrictions, there is still an opportunity to stay connected with our local community.
Mingara Relay TV is a two hour broadcast event on 13 November 2020. This will have some of the things that past teams all know and love about Relay For Life. Entertainment, Survivors and Carers celebration, Hope Ceremony with a slide show of loved ones.They will also be holding an old fashioned telethon for donations with special guests
If you are interested in supporting this event and would like to be involved in anyway please see Mr Ardley or Mr Banks in the HSIE/Middle school staff room.
Friday 30 October is #WorldTeachersDay! Celebrate the teachers in your life by showing your appreciation and support.
