2025 Terry Fox School Walk/Run at LJPS

 

Hello LJPS Community Members,

Lorna Jackson Public School is getting ready for the 2025 Terry Fox School Run! Again this year we are super excited to take part in this annual tradition that supports cancer research while building school spirit. We are excited to announce this year that we will be holding our annual Terry Fox walk on Thursday September 25th.

Once again this year, we will be asking students to support this cause by bringing in their ‘Toonies for Terry’ to help continue Terry’s legacy and raise funds to help beat cancer. New this year, please find our our LJPS school page if you wish or prefer to donate online (donations are made to the school, not to a classroom).

Our walk will begin at 1:45. We will be leaving the school heading east along Napa Valley Avenue to Forest Fountain Drive. We will continue along Forest Fountain to Sonoma Boulevard, we will proceed all the way along Sonoma until we reach Napa Valley again. We will then follow Napa Valley until we return to the school. We anticipate we will return to school around 2:45 at which time students will return to their classrooms. Our younger learners will be walking a shorter route, walking around the boundaries of our school. The walk will be supported by each of our teachers and our administration. We thank them for their support.

Please make sure to set up predictable routines such as, an early bedtime, eating breakfast and packing student backpacks the night before, so that you are able to get to school on time.  As we move towards fall and cooler weather it is still important for families to be prudent in completing daily  self-screening   to further prevent the spread of illness and COVID. If children are displaying symptoms, please keep them home and follow the screen guidelines outlined by York Public Hea...
