You are invited to Go the Distance by running, walking, swimming or skating as many kilometres as possible to support regional cancer patients and their families receiving treatment at Chris O’Brien Lifehouse.
IGS has proudly participated in this important campaign for the past four years, raising an average of approximately $10,000 each year. In 2026, we are setting ourselves an even bigger challenge: our IGS team has been divided into our four Houses — Baado, Bamal, Gura and Kuyal — and we would love to see each House raise $10,000!
Students, staff, parents and family members are all welcome to participate. Parents and relatives can join their student’s House, record their kilometres and help their House climb the leaderboard while raising vital funds for a very worthy cause.
Whether you complete a few kilometres or a few hundred, every contribution matters. You can choose your activity, set your own goal and participate at a pace that works for you. Share your page to family and friends to get sponsored. High School students have been challenged to run or walk a minimum of their age in kilometres. Some parents may have to do more!
Which House will travel the furthest? Which House will raise the most? Most importantly, can the IGS community come together to make this our biggest year yet?
Learn more about the campaign, join your House team and discover how your support will help regional cancer patients and their families at Chris O’Brien Lifehouse here.
Choose your House. Set your goal. Go the Distance!
