RAB Schools Challenge
Earn points to win money for your school!
Get your school in the running at Dubbo Stampede
The Regional Australia Bank Schools Challenge is a fun way for schools to get involved in the Dubbo Stampede while promoting health, participation and community spirit. When you register for any Dubbo Stampede event, simply nominate your school and earn points towards your school’s overall score.
The challenge is open to students, parents, staff and alumni of eligible schools. Points are awarded to schools based on participation, with higher distance events earning more points. Schools with the highest participation scores can win $500, a trophy and bragging rights.
How points are awarded
Wallaby Wheel, Macquarie Mile and 5.3 km Dingo Dash: 1 point
10 km Cheetah Chase: 2 points
21.1 km Zebra Zoom: 4 points
42.2 km Rhino Ramble: 8 points
Age limits apply for the half and full marathon events.
Points earned by participants are totalled for each school and then divided by the school’s most recent publicly available enrolment numbers (MySchools website) to ensure a fair result.
Prize categories
Small schools: fewer than 250 students
Medium schools: 251–450 students

With a range of events suitable for children, families and the wider community, the Dubbo Stampede and the Regional Australia Bank Schools Challenge encourage people of all ages to get active, get involved and support their school.
