Jump Rope for Heart kicks off this term at Alvie PS. There are plenty of activities for students to complete at home should they wish. Colouring pages, word searches, mazes, fundraising sheets etc; please see Mrs Thorley or Kylie for printed sheets.

Jump Rope for Heart is the Heart Foundation’s primary school skipping challenge that helps kids move more, have fun, and raise funds for lifesaving research and programs.

This year we’ve got an audacious goal to see our student Heart Heroes at Alvie PS to log 40 hours of skipping throughout the program!

Register your child online, so they can receive the full benefits of the program and participate in online fundraising, simply follow the link below to get started. www.jumprope.org.au/parents

Students will be skipping 15/07/2024 – 20/09/2024 throughout the term in PE lessons/during lunch break, during this time you can share their online fundraising page with family and friends to help raise money for this great cause.

We will hold our school Jump Off Day on 30/08/2024, this will mark the end of the program and is a chance for everyone to come together to skip and show off their newly learned skills.

Thank you for supporting the Jump Rope for Heart program!
