Biboohra & Mareeba Colour Runs

BOTH Biboohra and Mareeba State School recently held an end-of-year fundraising colour run to raise money for their P&C committees.

Purple was the resulting colour at the Biboohra Colour Run.

Mareeba managed to raise over $21,000, with $12,000 going directly to their P&C and Biboohra raised just over $1,700.

Mareeba’s Billy G from 1K was declared the 2024 Chases’ Champion and earned the opportunity to slime school principal Mrs Kylie Cochran. Other top fundraisers included Poppy H, Wayne S, and Avi R, who also got to slime deputies Mrs Nadine Apps, Mrs Nyree Burton and Mrs Pina Carroll.

Both events were attended by the Mareeba Fire Brigade, who had their own fun spraying the students with their fire hoses.

Mareeba’s school-based Police Officer Mr. Matt Mitchell also joined in on the fun and turned his normally blue uniform into an array of colours.
