Welcome back to the
2016-2017 school year! This year we’d like to hit the ground running,
literally. To celebrate Terry Fox and to
bring awareness to cancer research, we would like see how many kilometres our
kids can run collectively as a school. This can happen in many ways. Students
can run individually or as a team (dress up in fun costumes, face paint,
streamers etc). For those who wish not to jog/run, no worries, they can still
participate and dress up! Those who do not run will be walking a 3km loop while
our runners attempt to max out their totals on a (1-2 kms loop). The walking totals would also be put towards
our school’s collective goal! If there are any parents out there that would
like to form a team to run together, to run with their child or even just to
come out to join the cause, we’d love to have them! We will begin with an
assembly in the gym at 10:10 am. We anticipate concluding the run 11:30 am at
which time we will be selling some cold refreshing Freezies for $2.00 each. Proceeds
from sale of the freezies will go directly to the Terry Fox Foundation.
Come on out and join
us in getting some exercise while supporting a great cause!
