Marathan fundraiser visit

Today we welcomed Baz Newman, a parent of two of our pupils, to assembly to thank him for running in Southampton's ABP marathon in April to raise funds for Chromebooks in our school.

He was interviewed by two year 6's from our school's Green Council who chose the questions they wanted to ask.

We found out that the weather was cool but then it became very hot at 12.00. Baz trained for 4 months to run the marathon and it was the first one he had done, although he has run many Parkruns (5K) and other events before.

It was exciting to hear that his next challenge is on Friday, when he will be part of a relay team running from London to Cardiff which is 160 miles.

Thank you for raising £260 for our school.
