The event, organised by school staff and held during the school day, had the girls running, walking, hopping, and leaping their way through laps with determination and joy.
The PTA Big Walk is a key fundraising event, with all proceeds directed to the Parent-Teachers' Association. These funds are used to support various school projects and purchase items not covered by the standard school budget.
Staff members praised the event for fostering both physical activity and a strong sense of community among the learners. The successful day ended with smiles all round, leaving a lasting impression on the school and its learners.
