Dear Parent/Carer,
You can now sign your family up for free to our Family and Community 5k Walk.
On Sunday 23rd October our cycle team will be arriving back into school after visiting London, Cardiff and Edinburgh in just 80 hours, and we want as many of you there to cheer them over the finish line as possible.
If you head to the payment section on ParentMail you will now be able to sign your family up to the Family 5k walk for free!
The 5k route, supported by GoodGym, will start and end at the school and be suitable for the whole family and include some mini challenges along the way planned by Edible Hightown, the St Matthew’s PE Team and Galacticos FC.
The Family 5k is free to enter and will be rounded off with a ‘finish line festival’ consisting of music, bouncy castle, face painting, sports activities and food stands as well as many community stalls. The day will be concluded with the return of our cycle team, who we know will appreciate the warm welcome after such an epic trek.
We look forward to seeing lots of you at the school enjoying the mini festival on Sunday 23rd October so feel free to invite your family and friends and make an afternoon of it. We will release further details on timing and what you will find at the finish line event closer to the time.
Many thanks.
Mr Chaplen
Sports Manager
