Thank you to the corps of parent volunteers, student particpants, friends, families and staff who made our annual St. Lawrence O'Toole Student Walk a Thon such a success!! We started the day in true Olympic fashion with the parade of classes and the ceremonial first lap around the playground. Our runners were encouraged by our pastor, Fr. Nicholas, who provided a special blessing to the students for a successful day and no injuries.

This year the students in grades Kindergarten through 1ST Grade ran their laps on the playground while students in 2nd Grade through 8th Grade took the long course around the school and church. Thank you to all our lap counters who tracked the progress and offered support each time around. 
After the designated lap time was over, everyone savored popsicles, a cool drink and a delicious BBQ. Others moved to games, the basketball courts or enjoyed the music supplied by DJ Malachi. We finished the day with our Raffle Drawing.
