What:
"The Fitness Fest", is our annual
fundraiser that supports Friends of
Ivanhoe. One of the programs FOI raises
funds for is Physical Education at
Ivanhoe, so our teachers can spend time
together planning their classroom
lessons. If every child raises $100 we
can reach our goal of $20,000. Ask
family or friends for either $1 per lap
(or event) or a flat donation (which is
easier).
When:
Tuesday May 25th - 3rd, 4th and 5th
Graders
Wednesday, May 26th - Kindergarteners,
1st and 2nd Graders
Time:
8:10 am until recess at 10:10 am on
the lower yard
How:
The younger students (K-2) will complete
up to 10 stations and the older students
(Grades 3-5) will run laps. We are also hoping
to have a new event for the older kids,
the Big Jump Rope Challenge, we think
they will love it!

year we did a water balloon toss at the
