Balcombe Grammar School 2024

Welcome!

Congratulations to Balcombe Grammar School for hosting their third Relay For Life on the last day of term 3 in 2024, the Footy Colours 'Gone Wild' Day.

Balcombe Grammar primary school students and staff are invited to dress up in their footy colours, join their house teams and walk in honour of friends and family.

Relay For Life is a fun and moving experience that raises vital funds for the Cancer Council’s research, prevention and support services.

Relay is a chance for the community to recognise and celebrate local cancer survivors, those going through a cancer experience and their carers, to honour and remember loved ones lost and to raise money to help save more lives.

Join the thousands of Australians who take part in Cancer Council’s Relay For Life each year and make strides towards a cancer free future. Join the 2024 Balcombe Grammar School Relay today!
