École Ness will be participating in its annual Terry Fox Run this week. This year, students and teachers will be walking a 2 km loop in our community to celebrate Terry Fox and the Marathon of Hope. At École Ness, we believe that this is an excellent way to foster a sense of belonging and unity by participating as a school toward a great cause: cancer research.
In addition to walking in our community, we will be doing Toonies for Terry this year. Should your family choose to make a donation of 2 dollars, you can do so at https://sjsd.schoolcashonline.com This will be the maximum donation that can be accepted on our online system, so a tax receipt cannot be issued. Should you wish to make a larger donation, you are encouraged to do so at www.terryfox.org. Due to Covid-19 and keeping everyone safe at school, we will not be collecting physical money this year.
In order to ensure student safety, we will be spreading out our Terry Fox Run over the course of three days. This will allow us to have students walk with their respective cohorts. Each cohort will walk our 2 km loop at a designated time throughout the day.
Tuesday, September 29th: Grade 6! Students are encouraged to wear school colors or Ness clothing to show their school spirit throughout our community.
