ABOUT THE PROGRAM

The School Fun Run promotes healthy and active lifestyles while helping us raise funds!  It’s all about participation, with students treated to a great day as a reward for their efforts.  Family support is the key to our fundraising success and we encourage everyone to get involved.

 

HOW DOES MY CHILD FUNDRAISE?

Firstly, go to schoolfundraising.com.au and create a student profile page.  Everything to do with your fundraising revolves around this page.  Once you have completed this, read through your Sponsorship form, which has instructions on how to raise money and order prizes.

 

Students just need to raise $10 to receive a reward for their effort.  The more they raise, the better their reward- don’t forget to check these out in the sponsorship form!  Please be aware of the risks of door knocking without adult supervision.  The best people to ask for sponsorship are people you know (eg friends, family, work colleagues and neighbours).

 

ONLINE FUNDRAISING

The easiest way to help your child raise money is through online fundraising, where students raise an average of $120.  On top of raising more money, it’s also safer and easier than doorknocking and you don’t have to worry about handling money!  To start fundraising online, go to your student profile page at schoolfundraising.com.au and share your online fundraising link.  Payments can also be made on the Qkr! App.

 

If you don’t have access to the internet, please bring your fundraising money to school and a staff member will assist you.

 

GETTING INVOLVED

Not only can you support the school and students with your sponsorship – but you can join in on the fun! We would love to welcome parents and family members to attend the School Colour Fun Run from 1:45pm on the day.  You can join in on the run but will only be sprayed with colour at the end if there is any left over after the students are doused in colour.  If you would like to volunteer to help on the day, please let the Front Office staff know.

 

ORDERING PRIZES – ALL PRIZES MUST BE ORDERED ONLINE

Prizes must be ordered between 1st November and 15th November.  Simply visit schoolfundraising.com.au to create / log into your Profile Page between these dates.  Then click on the “CLAIM YOUR PRIZE” button and follow the prompts. 

 

More information will be sent home soon.  We look forward to seeing you at this fun-filled afternoon!
