Colour Run 2023

The Families and Friends Association are excited to once again host the Rivermount College Colour Run. This event is all about Fun! It will be a huge colourful mess and everyone is invited to join in.

What is a Colour Run?

A Colour Run is a 'fun and happy event' where students participate in an untimed fun run and are doused from head to toe in different coloured powders. Watch the short video below to learn about our co-sponsor 'School Fun Run' and the awesome colour run concept.

If you would like to support the Association and take advantage of this offer, please make payment before 5.00pm on Friday 17 March.

Primary packs will be delivered to classrooms on Wednesday 22 March, Secondary students are able to collect their packs from the sports canteen on Tuesday 21 March and Wednesday 22 March before school (8.00am to 8.35am), and during morning tea and lunch breaks

How Does My Child Fundraise?

Firstly, go to schoolfunrun.com.au and create a student profile page.

Students who raise just $10 will be able to participate in the event and choose a prize! The more money you raise, the better the prizes! So, work hard and you might be able to earn yourself a Tablet, a Hoverboard or even a dirt bike!

You can also earn badges and send your friends stickers.

Online Fundraising

The easiest way to help your child raise money is through online fundraising. To start fundraising online, go to your student profile page at schoolfunrun.com.au and share your online fundraising link.

The great thing about online fundraising is that you can share the link to your child’s profile with friends and family via email, SMS and Social Media.

Online fundraising is a safe alternative to door-knocking and a great way for extended family to support the event.

Prizes

We have teamed up with School Fun Run to offer students an amazing selection of prizes. There are even prizes for the best fundraising class in the College. To view the incredible selection please click here.
