Mini Marathon 2015

Today saw the 2015 edition of the Bernards Heath Mini Marathon. Over the previous week the children have done a great job collecting sponsors for the fun run. On Friday afternoon the children ran their hearts out to raises as much money for each lap of the school they could complete!

From the year group starts, lead by 2 of the schools Sports ambassadors Olivia and Jack, the children ran hard and enjoyed a very pleasent afternoon. by the end, a very large number of children managed the full 30 laps (I hope you all have deep pockets), but special mention must go to Charlie and Francesca from Year 6 who were the first boy and girl respectively to finish the 30!

During the run Mrs Wood also measured the 1 lap distance at 450 meters, meaning that any child completing the full 30 laps has run a total of 13.5 km!

Below are some pictures of the afternoon, including the '30 lap club'!
