Our schools' Terry Fox run is tomorrow morning around 10:00

Students are encouraged to bring "twoonies for Terry" that we will donate to the Canadian Cancer Foundation to support ongoing cancer research. We had a great discussion today about what qualities Terry Fox displayed when he planned and carried out his Miracle of Hope run. Students were amazed at the dedication, compassion, and courage that Terry exhibited when trying to help others battling cancer. I feel that students have been inspired to push themselves as he had done, both in the run for tomorrow, and when attempting to reach their goals.  The class seemed to understand that amazing things are possible when you put in effort and believe in yourself! Ask your child why they think Terry Fox is a hero.

Please make sure that comfortable shoes and appropriate clothing are worn as we will be running in the field outside.
