With the emphasis on fun, everyone was encouraged to take the course at their own pace. Some flew round, with a group of boys beating even their super-fit pacemaker, Mr Neill.

Others took the course at a gentler pace, enjoying the company and countryside as they passed over field, stile, hill and vale.

Pre-School and Pre-Prep children also joined in, fresh from their end-of-term Hallowe’en Spooktastic Disco. They took shorter routes but enjoyed both the fresh air and camaraderie of the event, alongside the older children from Year 3 and above.

The fun run, held on the last day of the half term, was held to raise money for Nayamba School, in Zambia. Nayamba School is a community school for children from pre-school to aged 18, who previously could not attend school due to distance and expense. For more information, click here.
