Wishing Josh all the best!

Buninyong Primary School would like to wish one of our parents, Josh Saunders, all the very best as he prepares to take part in the Big Freeze at the MCG this weekend.

Josh has been selected as the first ever member of the MND community to take the Big Freeze slide, ahead of the Melbourne vs Collingwood AFL match – a wonderful opportunity to raise awareness of Motor Neurone Disease and support the work of FightMND.

Josh and his family, including students Raff and Theo, have been passionate advocates for the cause over a number of years, helping shine a spotlight on the importance of ongoing research and the search for a cure.

Their fundraising link is below if anyone wishes to make a contribution ahead of the Big Freeze.
