Colour Run 

A heartfelt thank you to the community for getting around the Colour Fun Run and making it such a joyful experience for our students. There were lots of big grins at Alphington Park Incredibly, our fundraising total is now sitting at $23,434. A truly remarkable amount of money! 

For all of those families who have made online donations, you have until 30th October to log in to your online accounts and select to make a charitable donation or buy prizes. Since this was a fundraising event, we strongly encourage families to choose to donate to Greenfleet, the charity which our SRC voted to support. This will teach our students that the reward of fundraising is the wonderful feeling of helping a worthy cause. If you do opt for prizes, these will be delivered to school for students to collect. See below for instructions in how to select Green Fleet for your donation. 

Please read on to see what members of the SRC loved about our Colour Fun Run!
