If many small people in many small places take many small steps, they will change the face of the world."
Bad Überkingen's primary school children never run out of breath. The sponsored run of the Überkingen primary school pupils was an event of superlatives.
On Friday, March 25, the pupils laced up their sports shoes for a good cause and decided to get involved with children and families who had fled from Ukraine. The children had already been highly motivated and eagerly sought out various sponsors in the run-up to the event.
The starting signal for the run was given at 8.30 a.m. and each child had 45 minutes to run their laps until 12.00 noon. It was amazing to see the energy and stamina with which the children rose to the challenge.
The achievements exceeded all expectations in both sporting and financial terms - simply sensational!!!
The entire donation will be handed over to the Agapedia Foundation for Children, Social Affairs and Education.
Mr. Barth will come to our elementary school on Tuesday, April 12th and report on the situation of Ukrainian refugee children in the Moldavian border region.
Many thanks to all the sponsors and to the primary school pupils for their sporting ambition and great performances.
