Airnorth delivers Santa Claus to Kununurra in 2020

Following over two decades of tradition; the 2020 Airnorth Santa Run will visit the communities of Elcho Island, Milingimbi and Kununurra with one mission: to spread Christmas cheer. Airnorth will be visiting the local primary schools in each destination and is proud to be partnering with Coles Kununurra along with McDonalds restaurants of greater Darwin in 2020 to deliver fresh fruits, candy canes, water bottles and SunSmart hats to the kids of these communities. 

“Our annual Santa Run always serves as a reminder of the importance of community and this year with many of our more remote regions experiencing even greater isolation as a result of COVID-19, we felt it was especially important to uphold our tradition of delivering Santa and a bit of holiday magic in 2020,” said Airnorth CEO Daniel Bowden. 

Airnorth is grateful for the support of Coles Kununurra who are providing fresh fruit and candy canes for our Santa Run to Ewin Early Learning Centre and Saint Joseph Primary School Kununurra. 

“Coles Kununurra is excited to help Santa bring Christmas cheer to the children of our town. We have picked colourful fresh fruit to give the kids energy for the festivities. All the local Coles Kununurra team wishes the children and families a Merry Christmas!” said Coles Kununurra Support Manager Kristel Black. 

This year, Airnorth is thrilled to welcome on board McDonalds who have generously donated the water bottles and SunSmart hats as gifts for the children. 

“McDonalds has a rich history of giving back to our communities, so we were pleased when Airnorth invited us to participate in their annual Santa Run this year,” said Phillip Coleman – McDonald’s Licensee. 

“We thought what better way to provide the children of these communities with fun yet practical gifts that encourage outdoor play and a healthy lifestyle. We hope that the children receiving these gifts will enjoy them and get plenty of use from the water bottles and SunSmart hats as we approach the hot summer months ahead.” 

Airnorth would like to extend a special thank you to all of our supporters: Coles Kununurra, McDonalds Darwin and Ludmilla, Ewin Early Learning Centre, and Saint Joseph Primary School Kununurra
