Walk-a-thon

Here is Thomas with a couple of his mates from school at the Frankley Walk-a-thon yesterday. Thomas collected sponsorship from people and raised $150 for his school! We were so proud of him, the course was a 500m track around the back of the school and through the bush. He set himself an original target of 10 laps, and once he reached that instead of stopping and saying he'd finished, he reset the goal and ended up completing 16 laps!! That is 8km he walked with no complaining, at all!!
Here is to our awesome boy! and a huge THANK YOU to all those relatives, friends, Steve's work colleagues that donated money...Thomas is now awaiting the assembly on Thursday afternoon where he is hoping that his name will be drawn to win the boys bike...we'll keep you posted!
