Our annual Terry Fox Run is being held on Tuesday, September 28, 2021.  We will be doing our run during our gym classes to maintain our cohorts and physical distancing.  Unfortunately, families are not allowed to come participate or watch due to COVID restrictions.  Please make sure your child is dressed read to run on that day.  Proper outdoor footwear is required (running shoes please).  If the weather does not cooperate, we will do the run in the gym.  We are taking donations for the Terry Fox Foundation (for cancer research).  Our preferred method of donation is online.  You can access the Beddington Heights donation page:

Your child brought home a pledge sheet.  It has more information on how to access the online donation page as well as room for bigger donations if you wish.  You can still just send in cash without the sheet. 

We will be collecting donations until Oct. 1, 2021.  If the school raises at least $500, Mr. Shackelton will allow his students to dress him up and he will come around to each class to show us his outfit. 

 

Last year we raised $1017.85.  Let’s see if we can raise even more this year!!!
