Although it been a tough year for everyone, two families in our school community have been in our hearts and prayers constantly over the last 12 months as they have faced some incredibly tough circumstances. Many in our community have been touched by the challenges they have faced and have been keen to support them throughout.

With this in mind, as a school staff we wanted to play our part in helping them both to raise money for their chosen charities and hopefully to raise a few smiles along the way! So, we’ve set ourselves a challenge: to collectively run or walk all the way from Land’s End to John O’Groats (1,083 miles) by the end of the school year!

We will be tracking our run as part of a virtual Conqueror Challenge and keeping you updated with regular newsletter entries about our progress.

The charities we will be raising money for in support of these families are: St Leonard’s Hospice, and Oscar’s Paediatric Brain Tumour Charity.

We hope that you enjoy following our progress and ask that you give what you can to support these incredibility worthy causes.

PLEASE NOTE: Two charities are available for donation below, although both say Dunnington CE Primary Staff, the separate donation links take you to each charity:
