Jump Rope for Heart kicks off this week at St Joseph’s Weipa!!! 

Jump Rope for Heart is the Heart Foundation’s primary school skipping challenge that helps kids move more, have fun and raise funds for lifesaving research and programs. 

This year is the 40th year of Jump Rope for Heart! To celebrate this milestone, we’ve got an audacious goal to see our student Heart Heroes at St Joseph’s to log 40 hours of skipping throughout the program! 
 
Register your child online, so they can receive the full benefits of the program and participate in online fundraising, simply follow the link below to get started. www.jumprope.org.au/parents  

Students will be skipping throughout the term in PE lessons, during lunch break and before school, during this time you can share their online fundraising page with family and friends to help raise money for this great cause. 

We will hold our school Jump Off Day on 9th September , this will mark the end of the program and is a chance for everyone to come together to skip and show off their  
newly learned skills.  

On Tuesday 2 forms will come home with your child.  One is a Parents Guide, the other a information form about sponsorship. 

Thank you for supporting the Jump Rope for Heart program!
