We are delighted to announce that our ever popular Fit2Help and Big Healthy Breaakfast sponsorship fundraising events will be held again on Friday 3rd October (weather permitting). This is always a wonderful event in the school calendar that the pupils thoroughly look forward to and this year promises to be as exciting as ever.
We will have a big healthy breakfast in the morning time with healthy fruit snacks and some light youghurt (optional of course) all washed down with plain un-flavoured water. We will then follow this up with our multi-station activity challenge and obstacle course between break and lunch. After lunch we will then take part in a relaxing Daily Mile walk when we can chat with our friends, cool down after a busy day of fun/sports and relax into the afternoon. We will also learn about healthy food options in class and how eating well and being active can lead to us all being healthier and happier.
Each year we designate a particular focus for our fundraising effort and this year it will be to help us purchase newer and more up to date iPad devices as our older models are starting to become more and more out of date and non-compatible with modern apps.
As a small incentive for boys and girls to try their best with the sponsorship drive (if permitted by parents/carers) we will stamp each form returned with a minimum of £5 and enter that child's name into a raffle for one of three Argos vouchers to the value of £25, £15 or £10.
As has always been the case in previous years, we hope and trust that everyone can get behind us in this fundraising drive and do their best to help us out. If anyone would like to help donate some healthy fruit snacks, water or other items for the event then please reach out and contact us at the school.
Míle buíochas,
Mr. Galvin
