Burning Up the Hill for a Great Cause: College Named Top School Fundraiser!
Last Sunday, the infamous incline of Awaba Street was no match for the incredible spirit and determination of our College community. A powerhouse team of 48 students and 3 dedicated staff members took on the annual Humpty Dumpty Balmoral Burn, testing their fitness while supporting a truly vital cause.
Record-Breaking Fundraising Success
We are absolutely thrilled to announce that through the immense generosity of our families, friends, and community, the College raised an incredible $8,000 for the Humpty Dumpty Foundation. This money will go directly toward purchasing essential, life-saving medical equipment for children’s hospitals.
Event Highlights:
Incredible Team Spirit: From the starting line to the final crest, our students cheered each other on at every step.
Costumes Galore: The team brought incredible energy to the hill, featuring everything from Mario and Luigi outfits to bright wigs, fairy wings, and tutus.
A Mascot Meet-Up: Students even got to share a celebratory moment with the Humpty Dumpty mascot before and after the gruelling climb.
Special Thanks to Our Staff
An event of this scale doesn’t happen without immense behind-the-scenes support. A massive thank you and acknowledgement go to Ms Luisa Navateri and Ms Aislinn Millett, along with our staff helpers, who ran alongside the students, organised the team, and championed the fundraising efforts from day one.
Congratulations to all 48 student runners who wore the College colours with such pride, effort, and joy. You have made our entire school community incredibly proud!
