Race for Life 2012

As the highlight of Sport's Week 2012, the whole school (children, staff and some very hardy parents) took part in the Race for Life raising money for Cancer Research UK.  This is a charity that is very close to many people as lives have been affected by this devastating disease.   It is for this reason that the perseverance and  good cheer seen on the faces of all this morning was so touching.

Mrs Taylor set the standard at the front of the girl's race followed by all 90 children.  All ran 25 laps of the school field (5 km) which was a massive achievement raising in excess of £1200.


I found it incredibly difficult to choose from the lovely photos  taken by Mrs Gill for this blog, so decided to try something new and insert a slideshow.
Hopefully this will allow you to see all of our wonderful children, staff and parents working very hard.

It is days like this that really show what a special place Kelsale CEVCP is.  A huge thank you to Mrs Ward for organising, parents for supporting, TA's for running and organising and our wonderful children for just keeping those legs moving and making us all very proud. Group Hug!
