Jump Rope for Heart 2023

This year we have started off in the gym with the goal of increasing everyone's level of fitness.  No matter where you are starting, there is always a way to improve on your fitness level.  One way to improve fitness is, of course, to make sure that you are performing a certain amount of activity at an elevated heart rate.  Since we have been focusing on our hearts and heart rates, it seemed to be a perfect match to do "Jump Rope for Heart".  This is an event that raises money for the Heart and Stroke Foundation to go towards research and development in heart health.  It is also a fundraiser that involves skipping and fun.

We will be having our "jump off" on Thursday, December 7th.  The kindergarten to grade 3 students will do their jump off during the PE blocks during the day and any grade 3, 4 and 5's who want to participate will have an opportunity to do so during long recess on the same day.

Fundraising for the Heart and Stroke Foundation is not a requirement of participating in the "Jump Rope for Heart" however, any students who wish to participate in the fundraising can do so by connecting via the link below.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Ms. Beres or Mr. Wilson.
