Pink Stumps Day
By Abi Jones, Year 11 Student
This Year the Service Leaders for Round Square have set them selves the Lofty goal of raising $15000 dollars for the Mc Grath foundation with Pink Stumps Day.
For every dollar raised the team have committed to walk 1 lap of the oval.
We would love to invite our Kinross friends and families to help the team walk the laps and raise the money. If you and your family would like to come and support us please fill in the form below. We would like to get a good idea of how many people are walking when, so that we can be prepared, so please register for a time slot. The Leaders will be walking for 24 hours, from 12pm on the 1st of November to 12pm on the 2nd of November, or until they have finished walking off the laps.
If you have any questions, please email the school Chaplain Rev Sally. syabsleybell@kws.nsw.edu.au
We would love to have your support in any way you feel you can.
Blessings
Rev Sally and the Service Leaders.
