Whether you have a connection to someone who has been, or is going through cancer, or you just want to make a difference – Relay For Life is for you!
All Rangitoto College students and staff are welcome to join our team. Fundraising starts as soon as you sign up, and on the big day students work in teams carrying their baton around the track to symbolise our community’s unstoppable fight against cancer.
Relay For Life is not a race and is suitable for all fitness levels. You can walk, run or dance at your own speed and do as many or as few laps as you like. There are lots of performances, fun activities and good music and food to keep the energy alive. It’s all about celebrating life for those who have been through a cancer journey, and remembering loved ones lost to cancer.
It’s time to sign up and join our team. Let’s make 2025 our biggest team yet! Come and join the crew for a fun day and support a worthy course. We are hoping to build an even bigger team than the nearly 500 from last year and to work together to try and break our donation record – over $80000 in 2024!
