Record one or more runs on Strava in this period. Any Strava Run, Walk or Hike activity will count (we think). Secondly you can donate money. Details will be provided here soon. Brooklyn said she is aim for 250klm. However, I expect that we can do much better than that. We will talk about goals at the end of day. 1000k appears too far, given the short notice and the short time frame. Stay SAFE.
If you scan the red QR code it will take you through to Coast Run Goes Global on Strava. You will need to join Strava.

Kickstart your Saturday with a morning filled with opportunities to connect and explore. The SportUNE precinct welcomes you at 7:45 AM, where you can choose to participate in ParkRun—a 5k run or leisurely stroll around the picturesque UNE grounds. Whether you're a seasoned athlete or just looking to enjoy the scenery, ParkRun offers a perfect start to the day. [ParkRun Map Link]
SportUNE Exploration: After ParkRun, make the most of your time at SportUNE. Enjoy a coffee, a quick bite to eat, or simply relax indoors or under the sun. It's the ideal setting for catching up with fellow alumni and immersing yourself in the vibrant UNE atmosphere.
Next, venture to Austin Page College, where a warm welcome awaits you. Reconnect with friends and explore the EPC's rich history. You can take a guided tour, peruse the displayed memorabilia, or just sit down for a chat. It's a perfect opportunity to reflect on the past while embracing the present.

A member of EARLE PAGE COLLEGE is a member of a University College. This is significant. A University is a specialised institution designed for and dedicated to the advancement and dissemination of knowledge. These goals are most likely to be promoted through free inquiry on the part of all participants, students and staff alike. This means that the College is essentially a community of people who come together and understanding and to help each other to seek and to learn.
To this end, we all have the rights of freedom of expression and belief, freedom of inquiry, freedom from coercion, force and violence and threats and abuse,
However, in any community, and in particular in the close community of the College, the rights and privileges of an individual can only be upheld if they do not violate the freedom and needs of others, whose rights must be considered and respected.
This has the consequence that we all, as members of our College, have the right to organise our own personal lives and conduct according to our own beliefs and values, provided that this includes a proper respect for others and the rights of others to organise their lives differently, and is in harmony with, or at least does not come into conflict with, the essential nature of the College as a community of people who come together to learn and help each other to learn.
A community of this kind can thrive only in an atmosphere of mutual trust, courtesy and cordiality and will develop its effectiveness only if we live up to our responsibilities for honesty, fairness and tolerance.
This website will be updated with our 60th weekend celebrations which will continue to evolve but in the meantime please let us know you are coming by purchasing your weekend ticket.
