The sun was shining for our run and it was fantastic to see the whole school community participating in this school-wide event. Thank you to those parents who cheered us on around every corner. We got our hearts pumping, and our cerebellums allowed us to move with ease! (more about parts of the brain shortly)
We learned about Terry Fox’s life and dream to run across Canada to raise awareness and money for cancer research.
We read a story written by his best friend, Doug, called Terry and Me. We gathered together with Div. 15 and shared our reflections. We then added our “Dear Terry…” notes to our school’s hallway display.
