Long Ducker is one of the charitable traditions taken from Harrow School in England.Every year at Harrow UK, boys, teachers, Old Harrovians and parents combine to organise and undertake a charity sponsored run, the Long Ducker. Symbolically, it takes place along one of John Lyon’s roads, the Harrow Road from Marble Arch in central London to Harrow.The Hong Kong version now takes place along a 15.8km route on the MacLehose trail that runs immediately behind the School campus, with alternative shorter routes that allow participation of pupils and their families from the youngest in Early Years to the oldest in Year 13, both walking and running.The run is followed up by a huge community celebration at the School, showcasing the talents of our vibrant community. Friends of Harrow coordinates with parents to deliver an amazing range of international cuisine, setting the scene for a lively carnival atmosphere in the afternoon. The authentic food and drink, live music laid on by Harrow Hong Kong performers, and fun, games and activities all contribute to a relaxed and enjoyable day out for the entire School community.The School aims to continue the charity tradition of Harrow School in England, and further develop our charitable support to make a difference in Hong Kong and around the world.This year, I am so fortunate to have become a member of the school's cross-country team, and earlier this year, together with my teammates, we won the team championship for the school in the ISSFHK U12 Boys Cross-country. In addition, this term, with the encouragement of my mother, I participated in Hiking as an extracurricular activity at school, which increased my interest and confidence in running in the countryside. Therefore, through this event, I would like to take the chance to improve myself in the endurance and running skills in the countryside, and help in raising funds for the others in need in Hong Kong and in the world. Thank you very much for your support!!

Hi there, my name is Tin Kin and I am excited to introduce my family. We are a family of three, consisting of myself, my Dad, and my Mom. We are avid hikers and outdoor enthusiasts, and we are thrilled to be participating in the Long Ducker charity walk organized by Harrow International School. We are particularly passionate about this event because of its support for Food Angel, Crossroads Foundation, Friends of the Earth etc We have spent the last few months preparing for the Long Ducker, both physically and mentally. We have been training together, going on long hikes and working to build up our endurance. We have also been reaching out to friends and family, asking for their support in the form of donations. As a family, we believe in the importance of giving back to our community and helping those in need. We see the Long Ducker as an opportunity to challenge ourselves and to come together as a family to support a cause that we all believe in. We are thrilled to be joining the other participants at the starting line and are looking forward to completing this challenging but rewarding event. We know that we are just a small part of the effort to charity causes, but we are proud to be doing our part. Thank you for the opportunity to introduce our family and to be a part of this important event.

My name is Alex, I am 9 years old. I am fortunate to study at Harrow School the best School in Hong Kong. Unfortunately, many parents do not have enough funds to pay for expensive Schools for their kids and even to pay for their daily needs. I do believe that the funds for the charity, I am raising, can help some people to solve at least small problems.
