Each kit includes:
🌈 A white Colour Run t-shirt
😎 Colourful sunglasses for fun and added eye protection during the event
🎉 Colourful wristbands
Purchasing a kit is completely optional and students do not need to buy a one to participate. However, all students must wear a plain white shirt (either from a purchased kit or supplied by their family) over their uniform during the event in order to take part in the Colour Run. This helps protect school uniforms, while creating the colourful visual effect that makes the event so much fun. Our goal is to ensure every student can participate safely while helping create a colourful and memorable experience for the entire school community.
🌈 YES, MY CHILD WANTS COLOUR - Please make sure your child has a white t-shirt to wear over their school uniform. If you haven’t purchased a Colour Run Kit, a plain white T-shirt from home is perfect.
🚫 NO, MY CHILD DOESN'T WANT COLOUR - Please pack a different coloured t-shirt (not white) for your child to wear. This is the clear visual signal for our volunteers not to throw colour on them.
Volunteers Still Required
Senior Grades Photographer and Course Crew!
We’d really love a few more helping hands to make the day a colourful success!
Whether you can spare a little time or a few hours - every bit of help makes a difference.
We need more volunteers, especially for our older classes with larger numbers of kids. There are opportunities to help with the course set up, colour stations, walking groups to and from the reserve, handing out icy poles after a run, course photographers, and packing up.
