We end the week with Sports Day starting at 9:30am on the top field. All children will take part in all races. Please send children to school on Friday in their PE kit and wearing their team coloured top (green for Snowdon, red for Scarfell Pike and blue for Ben Nevis). There will be a short break around 10:30am where we will take the children back to their classrooms for a drink and a snack. FOGG will be serving refreshments.

Once the races are finished we will take the children back to their classrooms. Then it is time for our family picnic on the field. When you have finished you are welcome to take your children home, but please let your child's teacher know before you leave.
