Fun Run - Only 3 Weeks To Go!
The College Fun Run promotes healthy and active lifestyles while helping us raise funds! It is all about participation, with students treated to a great day as a reward for their fundraising efforts. Family support is key to our fundraising success and we encourage everyone to get involved.
How Does My Child Fundraise?
Firstly, go to schoolfunrun.com.au create a student profile page. Everything to do with your fundraising revolves around this page. Students who raise just $10 will receive a reward for their effort. Don't forget to share your online fundraising link.
IF WE ALL RAISE $10,000.00 AND ABOVE THE PREP TEACHERS WILL BE SLIMED!!!
Getting Involved
Not only can you support the school and students with your sponsorship, but you can join in on the fun! We would love to welcome parents and family members to attend. There will be a FREE Fun Zone Activities area which will be run by Kelly Sports.
Hall's Taekwondo will be performing an awesome demo and helping you get your fighting sprit!
Kid and adults can get their face painted and have a jump on the jumping castle. You can purchase food and drinks on the day. There will be a coffee van, an ice-cream van and a sausage sizzle
If you would like to volunteer to help on the day, please email pandf@aitkencollege.edu.au. We cannot wait to see you at this fun event!
Ordering Prizes
The fastest and easiest way to claim your prize is online schoolfunrun.com.au Simply login into your profile page and click on the ‘Claim your prizes’ link and follow the prompts.

Collection date and time for prizes will be confirmed by email, when all prizes have been delivered to the school.
