Run Club

In Week 15 of our run club, I received the outstanding news that 89 students participated with great enthusiasm and dedication. Although I couldn't be present to witness this magnificent gathering on the oval, the reports of their inspiring efforts reached me, filling me with pride and admiration for their commitment to fitness and personal growth. I would really like to see a big number like maybe 150 kids on the oval that would be awesome.

Their commitment to the run club's mission is truly commendable, and I am grateful for their dedication in fostering a positive and empowering environment.

Thanks to our sponsors Woolworths on Evans Road, who are constantly feeding the students afterwards.
