This Friday, August 16th, Ayr State High School will host a remarkable student-led fundraising event, spearheaded by school captains Layla Kelly and Noah Arboit. The initiative, organised by the Student Executive, will see teams of students and staff walking non-stop for five hours, from 4pm to 9pm, in a spirited effort to raise money for their chosen charities.
Each team has actively sought sponsorship to support a range of worthy causes, including Autism Awareness Australia, the Laurie’s Love Foundation, RSPCA, Lymphoma Australia, CORES, Ayden Wall’s GoFundMe page, Cerebral Palsy Australia, Ronald McDonald House, and the Cancer Council. These charities reflect the diverse interests and passions of the participants, demonstrating their commitment to making a positive impact both locally and nationally.
With over 100 registered participants, the event has garnered strong support from the Ayr High Parents and Citizens Association (P&C), which will be providing catering for the evening. The Burdekin State Emergency Service (SES) will also be on hand, assisting with lighting to ensure the safety and success of the event.
The organisers hope to raise between $2,000 and $3,000, a testament to the community spirit and dedication of Ayr State High School's students and staff. This event not only highlights the leadership of the school’s captains but also showcases the collective effort of the school community in supporting important charitable causes.
