*REMINDER*

We are very excited to welcome our Great British Athlete, Antony Cotterill into school on Wednesday for our sponsored event.


  • Please can all pupils wear their PE kit on Wednesday (Pupils in Y1-6 this is our usual PE kit, no bright colours or football kits)

  • Reception pupils can come into school in comfortable clothes and trainers suitable for exercising in.


If pupils have used the paper sponsorship forms, then all sponsor money should be returned to school, with the form, no later than Friday 29th November

Dear Parent/Carer 

 

We’re very excited to be welcoming Great Athletes to the school soon! 

 

Top GB athlete, Atony Cotterill will be visiting us, and leading a sponsored fitness circuit with all pupils, followed by a motivational assembly, and Q&A session. The aim of the event is to inspire every child to be more physically active, but just as importantly, encourage them to discover and pursue their passion in life

 

The event will both connect the pupils to an extraordinary athlete role model and raise money for new sports equipment to improve physical activity in the school, as well as supporting both athletes and para-athletes, so that they can continue to inspire the next generation.  

 

This week, your child will take home a sponsorship form to use to help raise money for the event. You can also sponsor your child by visiting: greatathletes.org and clicking on the button “Set up a Fundraising Page”.

Alternatively, you can scan the QR code to go directly to the online sponsorship page.





As a thank you, pupils will receive the following thank-you gifts for meeting these milestones:  


Raise anything: A5 sheet of motivational stickers 

Raise £5 or more: sheet of stickers, plus a blue Great Athletes wristband 

Raise £15 or more: all of the above, plus a red wristband with the athlete’s signature

Raise £30 or more: all of the above, plus a signed athlete poster  


Please ensure that the sponsorship form and money are returned to the school office 1 week after the event has taken place. 

 

Please also make sure that your children come to school on the event day with their PE Kits!  (We will send a reminder nearer to the event)

 

Thank you in anticipation of creating a terrific and memorable event.
