What is the ‘Live for Lily’ fundraiser?
Every year, Live for Lily, a non-profit charity, organises an annual 1000km bike ride over the first week of term one holidays. The aim is to raise money to help find a cure and raise awareness of childhood cancer. Our very own Oliver Hester will be partaking in this year’s ride for Lily around Victoria for the 3rd time, in memory of his mother and sister who lost their battles with cancer.

Here is an overview of the activities planned for the week:
Combined 40,000km Ride/Run/Walk Challenge: We are embarking on an ambitious collective endeavour to cover a total distance of 40,000 kilometres through various forms of physical activity, including riding, running, and walking over a 2-week period (Monday 18th week 8-Friday 29th week 9). For seamless tracking and communication throughout the challenge, we have established a dedicated club on the Strava app. Please ensure to download the app if you haven't already done so and join our club using the provided link: Strava link
In recognition of individual efforts and achievements, a special prize will be awarded to the participant who records the highest distance covered for each category (running, riding and walking) during the challenge period. We encourage everyone to embrace the spirit of friendly competition while striving towards personal fitness goals.
Pink Splash Day: During week 1 of Term 2, on 17 April, we invite all students to wear a splash of pink.
We will also have a sausage sizzle on the same day where students can purchase lunch and a drink!
