In June, nearly 200 students participated in the World Vision 40-Hour Challenge. They took part in a variety of challenges for 40 hours, including no social media, walking 40 km, 40 acts of kindness, planting 40 trees, and so much more. Together, we raised $10076.49.
Recently, Quincy Filiga from World Vision came to an assembly to present prizes to the top 4 fundraisers, who collectively raised $1153.33. The top fundraisers were Emily Stretton (Year 12), Ella Kirkpatrick (Year 12), Celia Morris (Year 9), and Rosa Morris (Year 11).
Westlake Girls also won a Gold Award for raising over $10,000 and a Milestone Award for 40 years old fundraising for the World Vision 40-hour challenge. Our World Vision leaders won an Outstanding Student Leadership Team Award, and the Teacher-in-charge of World Vision, Ms Sarah Woodward, won an Outstanding Challenge Organiser’s Award.
Thank you to everyone who participated!
