Colour Blast Fundraising Event

Colour_Blast.pngKingston Primary School P&F, together with sponsor GMC Advisors, are coordinating a Colour Blast fundraising event to raise funds for OUR wonderful school. This is a school-wide event, and we would love for every student to join the fun*.  We have set a $5,000 fundraising goal, and we think together we can make it!

WHEN: Term 3 - Week 10, Wednesday 28 September 2022. After lunch, students will be walking, running, skipping, or hopping to the finish line in a blast of colourful happiness.

WHERE: Our School Grounds – there will also be an obstacle course!

COST: $10 per student (This covers paint, finisher’s medal, sunglasses, a colourful headband, and a certificate).

WHAT TO WEAR: A white t-shirt and shorts/track pants. It all washes out easily, but best to not wear your favourites.

Registering your student is easy.

  1. Go to colourblast.com.au/schools/
  2. Click on the REGISTER pink button on the top right-hand corner.
  3. Scroll down the page, below the Australia map, and type in our school’s name.
  4. Click on the pink GO TO PAGE button below our logo.
  5. Now follow the prompts and complete the final three steps.

FUNDRAISING:

Once you have registered your children, you can start your fundraising. We recommend using just one child’s fundraising link (if you have more than one child) as your link to share with friends and family for your fundraising. Every $20 you raise; you will receive a $5 gift card from the selection. Raise $100 and earn a $25 gift card. Whilst we would prefer all fundraising to be completed online, if you would much prefer a paper version, please see the office for an official form. Fundraising closes midnight, 13 September 2022.

REGISTRATION TIME FRAME: Due to some technical issues with the Colour Blast website, we have extended the deadline for registrations.  Jump online now to register!

* NOT SURE ABOUT THE PAINT? Made from GF corn-starch and coloured by vegetable extract, paint will be squirted from a bottle. There will be designated paint squirt stations, so if you think you’d like to avoid the colour, you can just go around. We’ll be aiming for those white t-shirts and all participants will have sunglasses for extra eye protection.

* NEED HELP?

  • If you are not the best with technology, we can organise to meet you at school and step you through the registration process.
  • Have multiple children or worried about the cost? We are here to find a way to make sure your child can join the fun.
  • Your child would really prefer not to participate?

Just leave your name, child’s name, mobile number, and your concern with the office, and we will be in touch as soon as we can.

We look forward to reaching our goal, building memories, and seeing the huge smiles on students’ faces. Families are welcome to watch the fun!
