Opportunity Description:

Our in-person running & reading club happens once a week after school at partner elementary schools in under-resourced communities. The program is targeted for students in grades 1-6 and is free of cost. The goal of the program is to increase physical activity and literacy levels amongst students to set them up for success as they graduate into middle/high school and beyond. The program is 2 hours long and includes a warm up, running workout, stretching, games, a healthy snack, word of the day and reading/journal time. The students are working towards an end of year 5km race & reading challenge that happens at the end of May/early June. The end of year goal allows them to work towards something and is a great way to end the program and celebrate the accomplishments of the students. We are looking for volunteer coaches to assist with the program. Molly Brant Date/Time Molly Brant Elementary School, Wednesdays 2:40-4:40pm, 30 Lyons Street, Kingston, ON, K7K 0J5
