100 Miles in March for WWF!

The children took part in the 100 Miles in March challenge to raise money for WWF. Each class went on a run around the school field, with KS1 completing half a mile each and KS2 completing a full mile, racking up a collective total over 150 miles!

We raised an incredible £180 for WWF.
