On Saturday, our family of schools hosted the inaugural Spring Rush Fun Run at The Mill Cricket Grounds in Bedford.

In a beautiful setting, with no cell connectivity – the children bonded over fun activities, drank slushies, and experienced one of our most beloved parts of the Eastern Cape.

The trail was challenging but worth it, with good vibes being the order of the day!

The event was held to raise funds for a great cause, LIV Lukhanyiso Makhanda (Grahamstown), whilst connecting and celebrating our extended Bedford and the surrounding community of alumni, current parents, prospective parents and supporters!

Thank you to Kwandwe Private Game Reserve, Amakhala Game Reserve, GBS Mutual Bank, Birch’s Grahamstown, Friesland Milk Bar, Major Fraser’s, The Barista, Carara Cherry Peppers, The Crazy Store Grahamstown, PNP Grahamstown Family, The Highlander, Stowe & So (Tori Stowe), Sunnyside Nursery and Cold Springs Lodge.

Special thanks to the local farmers who kept us hydrated with oranges and supplied us with a bin of naartjies at the finish line, much to every boarder’s delight.
