Local Events and Activities for this Half Term

Paula's Two-15 Challenge

As mentioned in our newsletter, Get Berkshire Active have shared details of the Paula Radcliffe Two-15 Challenge which is taking place over this half term break.  Families are challenged to take part and complete two hours and fifteen minutes of activity together over the half term.  Full details are included here:  Paula's Two-15 Challenge

When you have completed the challenge, drop a quick email to the school office at ghpsoffice@maidenerleghtrust.org, to let us know how many family members completed the challenge so that we can collate and submit the scores for our school.

While completing this challenge, please remember to make sure that you follow the current government guidance regarding exercise and social distancing.
