This Sunday is all about Family Run Fun Day
We did it, we raised over $10,000.00 and counting so you guessed it THE PREP TEACHER WILL BE GETTING SLIMED!
A big Congratulations to Charlotte M from 2A for being the first student to raise the first $200.00. A special prize is coming to the whole 2A Class!
The event will open at 8:30am. On arrival, please make your way to the running track behind the Gymnasium.
Warm up will be held from 9:00am and the Fun Run will start at 9:30am
We strongly suggest any serious runners make their way to the start line early so they can be among the first group to enter the course. We will be sending runners and participants out in waves, prams are permitted on the course, but will be required to start at the rear of the group.
