St Michael's fun run for Mukuru

St Michael's Grammar School has organised the race in aid of its Kenyan Immersion Project.

Current students, past pupils, staff and eager runners will be setting off from the school at 11am. For those with a more casual approach there is a two kilometre fun run.

Organisers of the Mercy Mission to Mukuru Project hope that the event will help raise awareness of the poverty that exists in the slums in Nairobi, Kenya. The Immersion Project was set up in 2007 to give students first hand experience of the realities of poverty in Africa.

The plan this year is to fund the build of a classroom block in St Catherine’s Primary School.

Race application forms are available on the school’s website at www.stmichaelsgrammar.org.uk or by call ing the school on 3832 3192.

The race starts at 11am, with last registration at 10.30am. Entries cost 10 each.
