NLPS Colour Fun Run – What Families Need to Know
We’re excited to launch our Colour Fun Run, a whole-school fundraising event that brings students, families, and staff together for fun, colour, and community spirit!
What’s the goal?
We’re raising funds to support important school projects that benefit all students. Our major focus is transforming the school’s Quiet Yard into a vibrant, engaging space where students can truly thrive.
The Colour Fun Run is the celebration at the end of the fundraising period.
Who can participate?
Every student participates, whether they fundraise or not. This is about inclusion, teamwork, and shared achievement.
How can families help fundraise?
Families can choose what works best for them, including:
- Asking extended family members to donate
- Placing a small labelled donation jar at a workplace or office canteen
- Sharing the online fundraising link with friends and family
Supporting children to safely ask neighbours for donations
Fundraising information will be coming soon - keep an eye on Compass for more details.
Why We Love This Approach
Fundraising builds students’ confidence while helping them practise school values like responsibility, respect, and resilience, beyond the school gates. Families can support by donating, sharing the link with friends and relatives, or placing a donation jar at work or locally. We encourage students, with your guidance, to take the lead wherever possible; building confidence, community connection, and pride in contributing to something bigger than themselves.
Weekly Fun
Each week, classes will receive updates and celebrate fundraising milestones with simple, fun classroom rewards that are up to the school’s discretion. For example, it could be a fun 'wear your PJs to school day' for the winning class, or even a mini disco party.
Event Crew Needed
Let’s work together, support our school, and finish the term in a splash of colour! More details coming soon via Compass. For now, we need 4 - 5 parents that are keen to be involved in the organising process to get this event up and running.
