Maraetai Beach School’s annual Fun Run is happening this March to raise much needed funds to support our wonderful school!
The funds raised make a huge difference in enhancing the overall school environment and educational outcomes of all our students. Our 2023 funds raised will go towards an exciting upgrade of our school pool complex. This will include painting the exterior and installing a new heat pump which all of our students can enjoy!
As well as raising much needed funds, this event is a highlight of our school calendar! Our extended school community come together and work as a team towards a common goal, helping our school – and our students have a great time on Fun Run Day.
How will this fundraiser work? This year we have partnered with online fundraising company Go Raise It. Collecting sponsorship online makes it super easy for everyone - no more door knocking, your child can collect more donations from further afield (friends & family living overseas, work colleagues etc) and no need to worry about handling cash!
How do I sign my child up to fundraise online? Each child can sign up for their very own fundraising web page to send out to collect online sponsorship from anyone, anywhere!
- Just go to our Fundraising Hub page at: https://maraetaibeachfunrun.raiseit.co.nz/hub
- Click on the SETUP A FUNDRAISING PAGE button
- If you need any help email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. for direct assistance
Multiple children in your family? No problem, all children can sit under the same email address. You’ll find a button to set up another page while logged in to the fundraising account you created first.
Do I have to sign up for an online account to fundraise? We would love everyone to have an online account as this allows the school to significantly reduce the administration overhead of collecting and dealing with cash. Go Raise It adhere to strict cyber safe guidelines and this is built into our fundraising website. If you really do not want an online fundraising page, and still want to participate please check with the school office to see if you can collect cash.
