🌈 WE DID IT!! 🎉

What an incredible day at our NLPS Colour Run!

Not only did the kids have an absolute BLAST, but thanks to our amazing school community, we exceeded our fundraising goal!

We raised a whopping $31,416 which is just mind blowing!

A HUGE thank you to Carly, Mat and the brave teachers & staff that were willing to get slimed & messy for a good laugh for our students!

Massive thanks to our wonderful school staff, incredible parent volunteers, generous donors and everyone who supported this event. We couldn’t have pulled it off without you!

It was a fantastic day full of colour, laughter and happy faces, all while raising funds for our school’s Quiet Yard and updating our STEM Program supplies.

Thank you for making our first Colour Run such a huge success!
