By Annaye Blakey, a teacher at Helensburgh Public School

On the 23rd June, Helensburgh Public School held a Fun Run. It was a really great day that our students won’t forget.

The students loved playing different sports, running through the large inflatable course, getting coloured powder all over their shirts, running with Chase the Cheetah and even watching their teachers and principal get slimed!

We are very fortunate to have an amazing P&C committee, fundraising coordinator and parent helpers at Helensburgh Public School to help organise such wonderful events for our school community. Thank you to all the parents who were able to join the students and staff for our School Fun.

With everyone’s help we were able to make a memorable day for our school community and at the same time raise over $21,000 towards a playground upgrade.
