Spirit of Gold Mufti Day - Friday 23 August
Paralympics New Zealand are marking 1 year until the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games. They have a shortfall in funding of $1.1 million and are asking for the support of New Zealand schools to get the New Zealand Paralympic Team to Tokyo.
It's simple - wear gold and make a gold coin donation to support the New Zealand Paralympic Team and help them identify future Paralympians through our community Para sport development programmes.
They have developed an extensive toolkit including a range of resources and activities to use in the lead up to and during the Mufti Day. The toolkit will assist to introduce Kiwi students to Para sport, Para athletes and positively influence perceptions of disabled people.
Schools can register their involvement by emailing spiritofgold@paralympics.org.nz
