Terry Fox Run

Dear Parent/Guardian(s),

This year, Essex and Hawthorne will be participating in the annual Terry Fox Run on Friday October 2nd, 2015. Unlike in previous years, our Terry Fox run will take place in the morning and the afternoon on the school property at Essex and Hawthorne. We are asking students to wear red and white in honour of Terry Fox on that day. Below are the times when our students will be participating in the run:

• 9:50 am – 10:30 am – Kindergarten to Grade 3
• 1:45 pm – 2:30 pm – Grades 4-8

Following each of the runs, the school will be distributing oranges to the students. If possible, it would be great if you could join us on the run.

We are encouraging all students to bring in a Toonie or an amount you would like to contribute to the Terry Fox Run on the day of the event. A jar with the money raised will be in each of the school offices.

Alternately, to make an online donation, visit terryfox.org, click on the National School Run Day tab and then “Donate to a student/school”. You will get your tax receipt emailed immediately.
