Melbourne Walk for Prems 2024

On Sunday 27th October, our Aspire Melbourne teams participated in the Melbourne Walk for Prems event at Albert Park Lake.

Walk for Prems is the largest annual fundraiser by Life’s Little Treasures Foundation (LLTF), Australia’s foremost charity dedicated to supporting the families of babies born sick or premature.

LLTF’s vision is to ensure that all families enduring the difficult and life changing experience of having a premature/sick baby have easy access to critical information and community support. LLTF services are available in the hospital (neonatal and special care units) and in the community when families come home.

Once again, Aspire Early Education & Kindergarten was a sponsor of Walk for Prems and were thrilled to be part of this amazing day.

A Look at the Day!

As a sponsor of Walk for Prems, Aspire had a marquee at the event with fun sensory activities for the children. These activities included sensory trays with rice and different objects, creating stress balls with balloons and flour and making different shapes with playdough and plastic cut outs. Children loved these activities, and a few didn’t want to leave our marquee at all! Thanks to the Aspire team members for helping on the day.  

Throughout the event, there were many other fun activities for the children including face painting, photo booth, mini golf, sports activities, jumping castles and more! And to keep the tummies full, there were yummy food trucks and a coffee van to keep the adults energised too.

Before everyone commenced on the walk, the LLTF team gave heartfelt speeches and spoke about the importance of this day and what it means to families who have been through difficult times. There were also some beautiful singing performances that really touched the hearts of everyone there.

After this, those who registered for the walk then gathered at the starting line and began the 5km lap together around beautiful Albert Park Lake. With nearly 1000 people on the day, it was a beautiful sight to see so many people wearing their orange Walk for Prems t-shirts and walking and smiling together. As everyone crossed the finish line, they received congratulations medals for participating in the walk and supporting the event.It was such a great day supporting such a beautiful cause.
