The Terry Fox Run

This is a photo of most of our runners for Terry Fox (some were still running with their siblings-how cute is that?).  In the background are the crazy grade 8 house captains.   When your child enters Highview they are placed in a 'colour house'.  Throughout the year, red, yellow, blue and green house compete against each other in various challenges: crazy hair day, litterless lunches, pajama day and the Terry Fox run to name a few.  The points get up into the 1000's.  It's crazy fun! We ran representing our house colour and scored points for every lap we completed.  We watched a short video clip on the life of Terry Fox and his legacy of courage and hope.  Thank you to all those who donated to this worthy cause. 
Highview's goal was $800. The students raised $950.  Thank you for your donations.  I know many of the kids (and myself) had family members they were 'running for'.
