The children, also dressed in red, did 22 laps each. Some carried dummies and stretchers.
The school’s deputy principal Finn Barnett said they came up with the idea to support the challenge.
The children raised the money through sponsors and then handed it to Fire and Emergency for the challenge.

Pupils from Kairanga School take part in its fundraiser to support Leukaemia and Blood Cancer New Zealand.
Pupil Caitlyn Turner, 10, was taking part in the walk, sporting a firefighter’s helmet, and she said the children were keen to support the cause.
“One-thousand-one-hundred-and-three [laps] would be a lot to do by yourself, but when you’re splitting it into 22 each it wasn’t that bad.”
