On Friday, September 20, Janet Johnstone School will be participating in our annual Terry Fox Run to raise money for cancer research.  All staff and students from grades K to 4 will be running/walking a course on the school grounds in honour of Terry, a Canadian hero who set on a path to change the world.    

Families are welcome to join us for this event.  The Kick-Off Assembly will begin at 8:05 in the school gymnasium. Students will run/walk for about 20 minutes.  After the run, everyone will gather with their teacher for a concluding announcement and cheer on the hill by the compound. 

Kindergarten students in the morning classes (AM) will participate in the Terry Fox Run with the entire school.  Kindergarten students in the afternoon classes (PM) will do their run on Thursday, September 19.    

Donations for the Terry Fox Foundation will be collected from Sept. 16 – 20.  Students are encouraged to bring in “TOONIES FOR TERRY” or other donations of your choice.
