Mini London Marathon first efforts!
29th Apr 2026
This week the whole school are taking part in the Mini London Marathon for Schools as part of our Take 5 'Be Active' programme of events. Pupils have been asked if they would like to walk, jog or run a specific route to complete either 1000metres or 2 miles. With our amazing school site and the fantastic weather this week, we have set out a track as leg one and pupils can then complete multiple routes to work towards completing the Mini Marathon of 2miles by the end of Friday 1st May.
Lots of pupils arrived to school today feeling very enthusiastic about taking part. Many classes completed one lap as their daily mile while others attempted the whole route as part of their PE lesson.
Attached are some photographs of the Year 4s and Year 7s who attempted 2 miles in one session and succeeded! Well done everyone! We look forward to seeing other pupils taking part in this activity in the coming days. Certificates will be awarded to all pupils who take part.
