On Thursday, 20 March, Wynyard High School proudly hosted its own Relay for Life event. The entire school came together in the morning to walk the first lap with the baton. Throughout the day, each class took turns carrying the baton around the oval in 30-minute intervals, ensuring it stayed in motion and the spirit of the relay lived on.

The school community embraced the event with enthusiasm, dressing in the official Relay for Life colours—gold and purple—and raising over $700 for the Cancer Council. It was heartening to see students and staff unite for such a meaningful cause.

We extend our sincere thanks to Sarah Hirst from the Cancer Council for supplying the equipment that helped make the event possible. A huge thank you also goes to the SEC and staff at Wynyard High School for their planning, organisation, and energy in hosting such a successful and memorable event.
