The Great Stick Your Head in a Book Athon!

GHS Readathon

October 15-29

In memory of Margaret Mahy the big fundraiser for Gulf Harbour School this year is a Readathon - “The Great Stick Your Head in a Book- Athon.

Money from this event will buy new books for classrooms and ICT equipment for students.  Another aim is to encourage and promote reading for pleasure – so we see this is a win, win!

The Readathon will take place over a two-week period at the start of next term October 15-29. We have a school wide goal of reading 200,000 pages during this time.  If we reach our goal we will celebrate together in style with a whole school banana split!

Please help your child or children to collect as many sponsors as they can – every little bit helps.

Next term have fun reading together and encouraging them to read as we head towards our goal of 200,000 pages. 

Thank-you for your help and for the energy we hope you will put into this.
