On 16 May, residents are invited to participate in the DSJ’s Bewegungs Challenge by running, walking or cycling in order to raise funds for the school. The event provides people with an opportunity to have fun with different people simultaneously across the world.
The funds will be used for the installation of Covid-19 safety measures to keep learners and staff safe.
Participants can complete the entry form; make a pledge of any amount they like; challenge their friends and get active on Saturday morning. They can run, walk, cycle, or engage in any activity that can be measured in distance.
Those who would like to feel the fresh air can get on the roads between 6am and 9am. For those who would like to sleep in, they can participate at home between 9am and 12pm.
