Children in Need Mile Run

I thought I would share how amazingly the whole school did on the mile run today. EVERY SINGLE CHILD completed the mile, and many did much more. We have always prided ourselves on being a fit and healthy school, but this is a real achievement.   The Young Sports Leaders who came out the help were brilliant and helped to make the event run smoothly. Hopefully, we have raised lots of money for Children in Need while having a lovely time.

It is also positive to reflect on our recovery from the Pandemic as many children found this challenge quite hard when we first did it after all the lockdowns. I am a passionate believer that sport helps children build their confidence and resilience and a research report from the Youth Sports Trust has shown a positive link between physical activity and academic results and concentration. With that in mind, well done everyone!
