Hillcrest Jump Rope for Heart 2024

Students at Hillcrest Christian College have actively participated in the Heart Foundation's Jump Rope for Heart initiative. We hear from several students sharing their personal stories related to heart issues and their reasons for joining the cause.

Did you know:
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in Australia?
Regular exercise can help prevent heart disease?
3 out of 4 children don't get enough exercise, increasing their risk of heart disease in adulthood?

Originally, the goal was to raise $5,000 for the Heart Foundation and to skip for a combined total of 100 hours. Impressively, the students surpassed this goal by raising $6,763 and skipping for 105 hours!

A big thank you to all the Hillcrest students for their dedication to jumping rope and fundraising. They have demonstrated that something as simple as skipping can make a significant difference.
