St. Anne's annual Walk for
Wellness is a full day event for
students to get outside and be
active as well as raise money for
some important causes.
On October 12, St. Anne's
hosted the walkathon on their
track. Students raised pledges
from friends and family for a
total of just over $16,000.
This year's theme was "Shin-
ing Stars", which is related to
their school's overall theme this
year, "Let your Light Shine':
Based on this, each homeroom
dressed up as different "stars".
Amoung many creative ideas,
one room dressed up as movie
stars, one as Olympic athletes
and one as all things Canadian.
"A big part of the event is
school spirit," said Principal
Karen Tigani.
The day included costume
judging by the principal and
vice principal for which prizes
were awarded. There was walk-
ing around the track, and a free,
healthy lunch. In the afternoon,
each students signed up for one
wellness activity, for example
football or dodgeball.

The "EH" team dressed in Canadian attire was awarded best of the
homeroom costumes.
Funds from the event went to
a few places. 75% of the funds
went to co -curricular activities
at the school including sports,
clubs and the arts. The other
25% went to charitable goals.
This year's two charitable goals
were students and families in
need who are a part of St. Anne's
and the St. Andre Bessette fund
which supports families and
students in need throughout
Huron -Perth counties.
"I'm very thankful to the
wider the community who
supports this fundraiser," said
Tigani. "This is successful
because people are supporting
kids and the school. It helps off-
set cost and do more throughout
the year and I really, really
appreciate it:'
Tingani mentioned that she is
also grateful for various prizes
donated by local businesses.
Ryan O'Rielly, a former student
now professional hockey player,
also donated a number of items
including a signed photo and
hockey stick.
