Year 2-6 students from both campuses participated in our second Run4Bibles Cross Country Carnival
The event was held at Mills Park 2 in Beckenham, on Friday 28 August.
What a beautiful morning we were blessed with, blue skies and the sun was shining! This is always a fun morning, where the students are given the opportunity to run a 2km course for the Year 5-6 students and a 1.5km course for the Year 2-4 students. Every student that participated earned valuable points for their House.
The top three runners from each race will have the opportunity to take a place in the interschool team, where they will represent Rehoboth in competing against students from other Christian schools on 17 September.
We were able to raise a whopping total of $11,195.05 to donate to the Bible League.
This equates to about 1,599 Bibles to be delivered to students in South African public schools!
Congratulations Rehoboth students, parents and staff from both campuses!
What an amazing achievement and ability to spread God’s Word and serve His kingdom. Well done everyone! To find out more about Run4Bibles or to read and hear student impact stories, visit their website.
