Edgemont school will be having our Terry Fox Run this Wednesday, September 30 in the afternoon during school hours. Each student should wear comfortable clothes to school and have runners or sneakers on their feet. Students will be walking and running for one hour around the school grounds in honour of Terry Fox, whose legacy has raised over $500,000,000 to find a cure for cancer.
Students and families can also support raising funds that will be donated to the Terry Fox Foundation this week. Each classroom is accepting any change or coins you may want to donate. As well, we are having a book sale at school. Families, students and staff have graciously donated books to Edgemont School that are being resold, with all the money being donated to the Terry Fox Foundation. Hardcover books are $1.00 each, and soft cover and chapter books (novels) are 50 cents each. We realize that not all families will be able to participate in raising funds but each student can participate in the run and learn about Terry Fox. Thank you for your support! Comments are closed.
