Jump Rope for Heart kicks off this term at Eltham North PS for our F-2 students!

 

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

 

This year we’ve got an audacious goal to see our student Heart Heroes at ENPS log 20 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 during Physical Education session and platoons for the start of Term 2 and 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 Wednesday 21st May, 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. This will be held on the 1/2 court at lunchtime.

 

Thank you for supporting the Jump Rope for Heart program!

This special day will be filled with engaging maths activities and opportunities for you to visit your child’s classroom and see the wonderful learning in action. Our students are looking forward to sharing their love of maths with you!

 

We’ll also be holding a Maths Day Parade at 11:10am, and families are warmly invited to attend. As part of the fun, students are encouraged to come dressed in a maths-themed costume!

 

Some ideas could include: Dressing as a number or shape, wearing a costume with patterns or symmetry, a domino t’shirt, coming as a famous mathematician, creating a costume that shows addition, multiplication or other operations. 

 

We can’t wait to celebrate the joy of mathematics together. We hope to see you there!
