On Friday 16 September the entire St Monica’s community headed out for the school Walkathon. The children were all extremely excited to be out walking and chatting with their friends. The 3km walk took in the lovely scenery close to Ginninderra Creek and the beautiful blooming spring blossoms. We were incredibly lucky with the sunny weather and only had to avoid a few puddles along the way! It was great to arrive back at school to enjoy a well-deserved icey pole and some fruit with our friends.

A big THANK YOU to all the volunteers who came along to help. A day like this is not possible without your support in the canteen, along the paths and at the checkpoints. An extra big thank you to Keir Lawless who coordinated all the fabulous class prizes.

We appreciate all your sponsorship donations and are looking forward to purchasing some exciting resources for our students.

Congratulations to the following students who won the Walkathon lucky dip prizes for their class. 

Marlie H, Annabelle W, Eva B, Leo S, Thomas S, Selina L, Jack B, Sonny S, Ana L, Isreal O, Ciresa K, Lachlan P, Claire H, Brando B, Aidan H, Jack R and Tyler B. 

Thank you to everyone who raised money for this wonderful fundraising event for our school.
