Year 6 Class United Kingdom 4 Capital Cities Cycling Challenge
Year 6 Class Capital Cities Cycling Challenge - BE MORE LIKE OLIVIA
My Story
The Year 6 children of St John’s Primary School in Wellington are taking on a fundraising challenge! They are aiming to cycle 2225km! This is the distance which equates to: leaving our school in Wellington, Somerset and cycling (virtually, using an exercise bike) to London then Edinburgh, over to Belfast, down to Cardiff and then finally arriving back at school (hopefully in time for Christmas!). These capital cities link to our 4 school houses: St George, St Andrew, St Patrick and St David. This is going to be an incredibly tough challenge but the Year 6 children are going to attempt to complete this over the next 6 weeks throughout November and December. Along the way, we will be discussing some Geography work, using Maps and discussing landmarks; some Maths work, considering distances and our fundraising total; and some Computing work to organise our fundraising webpage and sharing our story online.
The charity we are raising awareness of and money for are 2wish; this charity has been of huge support to the Year 6 Class Teacher, Mr Foster, when his daughter, Olivia, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly, aged 15 months old in October 2023.
