Story

🏃‍♂️ 🏃‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️🏃‍♀️ WE DID IT!🚶‍♂️ 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🚶‍♀️
We took part in our sponsored event today. We were very lucky that it stayed dry and we were very grateful to Bournemouth School for letting us use their field. Some children walked and some children ran; parents and carers cheered us on and we had a fantastic time! THANK YOU to everyone for supporting us in our fundraising for this fantastic cause. There is still time to donate!

We are taking part in The Big Lent Walk on Monday 25th March, please sponsor us!

During Lent, we want to challenge ourselves like Jesus did in the desert for forty days and nights. We are encouraged to show almsgiving during Lent, so this is our way of raising money for CAFOD. All children in school are going to take part in ‘The Big Lent Walk’ which the school council and chaplaincy team have organised! Parents are encouraged to come and watch their child run and cheer on all of the children as they complete this challenge! Therefore, we would love for each child to be sponsored by their family and friends and raise as much money for CAFOD during Lent.

Your donations can change lives. Every £1 raised through the Big Lent Walk will help fight poverty globally in countries like Afghanistan, Colombia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and South Sudan.
