This year has seen Run Beyond help more and more children, with 25 schools participating. Graduates now total 413, 96 of these being of ATSI background, 49 refugee background and 20 from out of home care.
Schools have participated in Goal Races from Perth to Darwin, NSW and Victoria and we have seen some great team building with multiple schools sharing the same Goal Race. In September Kanahooka High School, Lake Munmorah High School, Lightning Ridge Central School, Northlakes High Schooland Queanbeyan High Schools all successfully competed in the Sydney Marathon 10km. For many of these kids it was thier first trip to Sydney and an amazing experience for them.
Keep your eyes out in November as we again have 5 schools sharing a Goal Race. Doonside Technology High School, Dunedoo Central School, Lomandra School, Riverstone High School and Windsor High School will all be tackling the Husky Running Festival in Huskisson, NSW. It will be a fabulous weekend and if you are around go and give the kids a cheer on!
