Jump Rope for Heart

It's not too late to REGISTER! Click below.

I am blown away by the incredible fundraising quietly occurring behind the scenes. With about 2 weeks still to go, our students have already raised over $3800 for the Heart Foundation! What an incredible effort!

If your child hasn't yet registered, consider doing so. The fundraising page give access to skipping challenges and skill videos as well as a tool for recording skipping time. And, perhaps, focusing on helping others through fundraising might prove helpful in getting through these challenging days.

I am really impressed with the improvement in the students' skill levels with those skipping ropes. I received so many wonderful videos yesterday via Seesaw!

All students registered by 8am tomorrow morning will go into the draw to win one of the 15 QR-coded bracelets that Jump Rope for Heart included in this year's school resource pack! Once registered, you can log your skipping. You'll also have access to weekly skipping challenges and skill videos. And, of course, you can raise funds for the Heart Foundation, too.

Registered students have already raised an incredible $2564.91! Incredible effort! Bravo and keep it up!

It has been so fabulous to see so many of the students skipping during recess times and to see their progress during P.E. classes!

Jump Rope for Heart is a fantastic physical activity and fundraising program that has been run by the Heart Foundation for over 36 years. It’s a great way for your child to keep fit and learn new skills, but it also helps raise funds for vital heart research and education programs.

Since Jump Rope for Heart started in 1983, schools like ours have raised more than $104 million for the Heart Foundation’s lifesaving work. It’s important you register your child online, so they can receive the full benefits of the program and participate in online fundraising. Simply follow the link to get started www.jumprope.org.au/parents

You can share students’ online fundraising pages with family and friends to help raise money for this great cause.

We will hold our school Jump Off Day on Wednesday the 8th of September. 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!
