🏃♂️🌧️ RACE FOR LIFE 2026 SUCCESS! 🌧️🏃♀️
A massive congratulations to all our incredible students who took part in the Cancer Research UK Race for Life last Thursday, 18th June! 🏅
In true British fashion, the only hour it rained the entire week was the exact hour of our run! 🌧️ Despite the sudden downpour, our students showed absolute resilience, brilliant determination, and a fantastic community spirit. You all did us incredibly proud!
💰 FUNDRAISING UPDATE:
So far, we have raised just over £2,000 for Cancer Research UK! This is an amazing achievement that will help fund life-saving research.
The JustGiving page is still open if you would like to help us add to this total. Every donation makes a difference! ➡️https://fundraise.cancerresearchuk.org/page/hailsham-academy-2026
Please note the final date for online and cash donations is 3 July. Cash donations can be handed to Miss Newman any morning on the bottom gate.
🙏THANK YOU:
This event could not have happened without our wonderful staff members. Thank you to everyone who stepped up to help—whether you were marshalling in the rain, handing out refreshments, distributing well-deserved medals, or running alongside the students!
✨ SPECIAL RECOGNITION:
A special, huge thank you goes to Miss Newman, who organized the entire event. Thank you for your hard work and dedication in making this day such a triumph every year!
