Is a fun run where children will complete a lap of an obstacle course that will include stations where they will be puffed by colour powder and stations that are inflatable obstacles.
The powder is 98% cornstarch and 2% permitted colour.
The powder will likely temporality stain clothing but not skin. If you have concerns (or a dance comp the next day) just ensure the powder is removed from the skin as soon as the race is finished.
IF you want the powder to stain check out the instructions on our T-Shirt page.
Orders are now closed for our limited edition Rainbow Run T-Shirts. There will be a very limited number of shirts available to purchase on the day. Otherwise children should wear a white shirt.
Each student will get Sunglasses and a headband to protect eyes.
There will be an option for a colour free run for anyone who may have sensory needs or just doesn't want to be covered in colour powder.
Families will be welcome on the day. Come and to volunteer.

If fundraising cash amounts need to come to the school with the parent or child please don't wait until the end. Bring it in regularly, with the sponsorship form filled in and attached, and take to the office. This way students aren't carrying in bulk amounts of cash. The office or teachers can give out new sponsorship forms or download one from our forms page
Fundraising forms will be due Friday 24 November and fundraising links will be closed on the same day. But don't wait to the end bring it in when you are ready.
How do I know who's donated to my child? Unfortunately we do not have the resources to provide this information for each child.
We update the charts on this page regularly keep an eye on how your class is doing on our Track page.
