This year for Sport Relief, we will be doing our annual mile around the school grounds to

raise money for this charity. This will take place on 23rd March 2018 and your child can

come in dressed in red; sponsor form will have come home with the children today.

Alternatively, this year, sponsorship money can be added at www.my.sportrelief.com/

sponsor/clenchwartonprimary instead of sending in the money to the office (please still

hand your form in to the class teacher so we know who has helped to raised the money).

Leading up to Sport Relief day, I have set the challenge for staff and children to walk

1,000,000 steps between them. We will see how far we can walk around the world and visit

as many countries as possible on the way (on a map). To join in with this activity, the

children need to sign up to the sheet in their classroom by 14th March 2018. They will

need a pedometer and to record their daily steps on a card I will give them once they have

signed up.

I look forward to seeing how many children will be joining the staff, how far we can walk

between us and just how much money we can raise as a school this year - we raised over

£1000 last year. Fantastic!

We have an online sponsorship page at my.sportrelief.com/sponsor/clenchwartonprimary Don't forget to get your child to sign up to the 1,000,000 steps in their classroom before 14/3/18

Thank you.
