Have a ball and help your school
JOBURG - PUPILS can stand the chance to help their school win Mecer laptops and all-in-one printers by taking part in the Spar Women’s Challenge at The Wanderers Sporting Club in Illovo on 11 October.
There are two parts to the challenge: Pupils can either take part in the 10km Challenge or opt for the 5km Fun Run. Walkers are welcome too.
The school with the most finishers on race day will win the grand prize of a Mecer laptop with software and an all-in-one colour printer, copier, scanner and fax.
Schools with the second and third-highest number of finishers will each win a Mecer laptop with software; and the second place school will take away an all-in-one mono printer, copier, scanner and fax.
Schools must have at least 20 entries to qualify for the prize.
Other prizes include Spar vouchers worth R15 000.
Pupils are encouraged to have fun while helping their schools, such as by organising a competition within a competition to see which class can get the most number of girls to take part, or have an inter-house competition – perhaps the winning class or house could be the ones to get first use of the computer?
The race itself promises to be great fun with thousands of women out to enjoy themselves, and entertainment at the finish line with a real party atmosphere.
The first 15 000 people to enter the race will receive a free race T-shirt at registration, and the first 15 000 to finish will receive a medal and a goodie bag. This year’s T-shirt is coloured a lovely pink that will look good on anyone, so it is well worth entering the race just for the T-shirt.
It is very important to get your school’s entries in before the closing date of 26 September and only pre-entries will be considered for the laptop and printer prize. And just as important, only pre-entries will receive the free T-shirt. Entry forms are available at all Spar, Superspar and Kwikspar stores, or you can enter online.
