With the introduction of House Teams this year, the annual walk-a-thon will take on a slightly different format to previous years.

On Wednesday February 14th, the whole school will be taking part in our first ever House Teams Walk-a-thon.  The event will take place at the MUST stadium running track. All students (Kindergarten through to High School) and teachers will be participating in the event and are asked to wear their house team shirts and dress appropriately for the weather and exercise.

Not only will this be a fun event for the whole school, kindergarten and elementary students will be using the event to raise funds which help to offset costs of field trips, special educational days and for guest speakers and artists to visit our school. Sponsorship forms will be coming home this week.

Due to the size of this new format, parents will not be permitted on the track this year. However, we welcome parents to come and cheer on the teams and take pictures from the stadium stands. Parents – please feel free to come dressed in your child’s house team colours!!

The timing will be as follows:

• 9:00-10:00   – Div 1 and Div 2  “Run-a-thon”
  10:00-10:30 – Whole school rally and walk around the track
  10:30-11:00 – Whole school moves to TIS field for a snack
