It’s Here! – Moveathon 2022 – Wednesday 4th May!

On Wednesday May 4th (be with you) all students will participate in our second Moveathon event!
Everyone from PreK – G11 will move around the track for 25 minutes alongside different Grade levels as a community.
As it is a House challenge, make sure to wear your house shirts so that you can contribute to the house spirit and scoring.
This years Moveathon is also supporting two related charities: We Walk With You Parkinson’s foundation (UN Goal #3 – Health and Wellbeing) and the Pechersk School International (UN Goal #16 – Peace and Social Justice).
Students, parents, and staff may participate in this fundraising through an optional donation. Since our students are walking for at least 25 minutes on the day, our suggested amount is 25 RMB. Please scan below if you are interested in supporting these causes.
After the long weeks of online learning, this is a great opportunity for our NIS community to recognise the importance of movement, and feel the spirit of working for a good cause as a whole community!
Thank you in advance for showing your house and community spirit to move in support of 2 wonderful charities.
The Moveathon organising committee.
Schedule will be shared through the Bulletin on Tuesday 3rd May and in PS homerooms.
