Read-A-Thon
On Friday April 24th, the elementary and junior high students participated in Rundle Academy’s second annual read-a-thon. The students read for a total of 2 hours. All of the pledges that the students received from their family, friends and neighbours will go directly to Casa Connor. This year the students raised $5698.50. Kids for Kids would like to thank all of the students that participated this year and brought in their pledges.
