We are thrilled to announce the successful conclusion of our Push Up Challenge!

Over the past weeks, our community came together in an inspiring display of determination and teamwork. With 88 students and staff participating, we collectively completed an astounding 99,166 push-ups. This incredible effort helped us raise $3,362 for a worthy cause.  Some of our students who raised the highest amounts were:  Zach Sammut, Jamie Hennessy, Finn Van Aalderen, George Barry, Xavier Gerritsen and Jude Mathey.

The challenge was more than just a test of physical endurance; it was a testament to our spirit and solidarity. Each push-up represented our commitment to making a difference, and the funds raised will go a long way in supporting our chosen charity.

One of our participants, Alex, shared his thoughts: “Participating in the Push Up Challenge was an amazing experience. It was incredible to see everyone come together and push their limits for such a great cause. I’m proud to be part of this community!

Did you know? Push-ups are not just a great exercise for the arms and chest; they also engage multiple muscle groups, including the core and lower body. There are over 50 variations of push-ups, such as clapping push-ups, diamond push-ups, and Spiderman push-ups.

A huge thank you to everyone who participated, cheered, and donated. Your enthusiasm and dedication have made this event a resounding success. Let’s continue to build on this momentum and strive for even greater achievements in the future!

Keep pushing forward!
