Lap-A-Thon - Thursday 5 September 2024

The Lapathon is an important community event and integral for raising funds for the upgrade of the playground. Each child in the school will participate and walk laps around the school block.

Children are encouraged to gain as much sponsorship as possible with the view to walking at least 5 laps - or more for older children. Sponsors may be friends, family, neighbours or parents' work colleagues. Children should not be 'walking the streets' looking for sponsors.

If the donor is making a fixed donation (regardless of the number of laps), they can make the donation at any time before Thursday 12 September 2024 using this link.

If the donor is pledging an amount per lap, the student will contact you after the Lapathon to tell you how many laps they completed.

Children need to bring their sponsorship card to school on Thursday 5 September. The Lapathon will be held at 2.00pm and family and friends are encouraged to come and cheer their children on.

If you need more space for donors please see the school office for an additional card.

After the Lapathon is complete, all children will receive an ice block from the P&C. In addition, the P&C will host a Sausage Sizzle with treats, which is a further opportunity to engage with our school community and support the school's fundraising efforts.

Now is the time to collect the money pledged and return it as soon as possible.

All money received before Thursday 12 September will be tallied and the classes that raise the most money will receive a prize. The winning class(es) will be announced at assembly on Friday 13 September.

The prizes are:

First place Class pizza party with playground of choice (main playground or nature play) reserved for your class for a lunchtime early in Term 4

Second place An ice block for each student in the class in early Term 4

Thank you in anticipation of your support.
