TOONIES for TERRY!
Our Terry Fox Walk/Run at Divine Infant - Tuesday, October 3rd, 2:30 pm
We are pleased to announce that we will be having our annual Terry Fox Walk/Run for Cancer Research at Divine Infant School on Tuesday, October 3rd! We are happy to support the Terry Fox Run for the 13th consecutive year and to keep the spirit of this amazing Canadian hero alive. Students will be walking / running around a set route in the school yard and soccer field. You are welcome to join us!
The students got to meet Atif Rashid at an assembly today, a cancer survivor and motivational speaker. Through the inspiration of Terry Fox, he encouraged the students to conquer challenges, and find strength and hope in the face of obstacles.
We are encouraging everyone to donate a “Toonie for Terry” (or any amount of your choice will be greatly appreciated). Students can either give money at school, or donate online. Follow the link posted below to donate. Please ensure that your child brings a water bottle to school and wears comfortable walking/running shoes. We look forward to learning more about Terry Fox and honouring his memory by collecting donations for this very worthy cause.
