The day commenced with a warm-up session, followed by a launching ceremony and a 3.2-kilometre walk which began and concluded at Taman Haji Sir Muda Omar ‘Ali Saifuddien.
Proceeds from the 2024 fundraising campaign will be allocated for teaching and learning purposes, as well as to enhance the welfare and comfort of IBTE students.
Additionally, 30 per cent of the proceeds will be donated to registered charities in Brunei Darussalam.
