    Story

    Thanks for visiting our fundraising page!

    The Year 6 Staff Team from Maindee Primary School will attempt to push ourselves to the limit by taking on the Welsh Three Peaks Challenge. The challenge is being undertaken for the benefit of our pupils and involves climbing the highest mountains in North, Mid and South Wales in less than 24-hours!

    Teaching through a pandemic has shown us the wide-ranging impact that Covid-19 has had on children and their well-being. We are looking to raise money for pupils within our school to enable them to attend our Residential Trip despite difficult financial circumstances, where families might not be able to fund the entire cost. These trips enable pupils to find their inner strength, to push themselves way out of their comfort zone and to create unique memories that will last a lifetime. In current times, these experiences are more important than ever for our pupils!

    The challenge includes a walking distance of 17 miles (27.4km) and an ascent of 2334 metres (7657ft). It starts in North Wales at Snowdon, which at, 3,560 feet is the tallest of the three. From there the expedition will drive south where we will climb Cadair Idris (2,930 ft). The final mountain of the three is Pen-Y-Fan in South Wales, standing at no less than 2,906 ft. The challenge will start on 26th March at approximately 4am, we hope to complete the challenge late in the evening hours, when we reach the summit of Pen-Y-Fan!

    In preparation for this challenge, we will be starting 10 weeks of intense training to make sure we are mentally & physically prepared for the task ahead!

    We will also be donating to Newport Mind Children’s Services, a local charity that work tirelessly to support the mental health of children in South Wales. Any donation you can give, whether big or small will be greatly appreciated, and together, we can make a huge difference to the lives of children living in hardship in Wales.

    If you are able to sponsor please use our Just Giving page or alternatively, we can accept cash donations sent to our school office - please mark envelopes with Three Peaks Challenge. Thank you!

    The Team: Abby Parcell, Dan Jones & Ravi Baksh. 🙌
