Hills Road students run for Teenage Cancer Trust

Participants ran, walked and went three-legged around the 4.5km route, with many in creative fancy-dress costumes! Students and staff rose to the occasion with innovative outfits including a comedy fire brigade, a wearable inflatable dinosaur, Pokémon characters, a penguin and Spider-Man!

The race started from the College, with the Student Council and a personal trainer getting runners warmed-up before they set-off. Competitive runners started the HR4.5, to battle it out for first place, followed by many more leisurely runners, walkers and wheelchair users.

Congratulations to Y12 student, Maxwell Buchanan, who was the first person over the finish line.

To launch the fun run, a competition was held for students to design the logo. Jonathan Trewin was the student-voted winner with the HR4.5 cleverly highlighted in the shoe’s tread.

The College’s senior management team also stepped up to the challenge, with the Principal, Jo Trump dressed as a box of French fries, Deputy Principal Nicki Dartnell as a hotdog and Assistant Principals Ian Pryer and Ali Talbot were dressed up as a bottle of ketchup and a pot of mustard respectively!
