Welcome Walk - Kelsey MacDonald


Being part of a global citizen ship class we all got to help plan the day. We all came together and brain stormed ideas to see what we could do to make the school more excited and motivated to be part of the walk to make a massive difference. We also were trying to think of ways to make the walk a little different from the last time.

 

On the 8th of September the whole school returned to the park for a second welcome walk to raise money for Welcome primary. We all came together and managed to raise a lot of money and challenged ourselves to another 5K walk. We decided to do this walk again because it had a massive impact on the school and helped them out a lot and we all had a lot of fun. Some of us jumped right into day and even dressed up, I personally dressed up as a Hawaiian person.

 

We started off the day by collecting money and sponsor sheet forms which we then all counted, we then headed out to the park to set up chairs and signs. At the start of the walk we had some pupils playing the bagpipes and the drums before everyone started and then continued playing while the first house left. Some of us even got to drive about on the back of teacher’s golf buggies this was a great laugh.
