Come on all you runners and swimmers! Competition time! Please read me!


Calling all Year 4s who would like to have a go at the South West Schools' Biathle Championships  on 15th May 2016 at Leweston School, Sherborne, Dorset.

This is an individual event, however if there are more than 3 boys or girls in a category they will also make up a team, so the more of you that enter the better!!!!!

What is a Biathle I hear you ask? It is a continual event, comprising of, for Year 4, a 300m run straight in to a 40m swim followed straight into a final 300m run. It is a great challenge but also lots of fun and the children get a real sense of achievement from doing it - and may even enjoy it so much that they want to do more!!! Last year we did well, winning medals!!!!!

If you would like to enter, then please come and have a look at the team entry form and details and also ask me any questions! The absolute final closing date for the entries to be received is the 5th May!

Date for the diary - later on, there will be a National Schools' Biathle at Leweston, Sunday 19th June!

What great opportunities!!!!

Please come along, bring a picnic and make a day of it!

Mrs. J and the Year 4 Team.

  1. Amelie is very keen to have a go but this clashes with her dance show, which means that it will also be a problem for Gen, Martha and Charlotte.

  2. Oh what a shame, never mind though, they are already committed to another sport which is super as well!

    1. I know what that's like - children that want to do everything!!!!!!
      Great enthusiasm and energy - can't be helped if these things clash though!
      Mrs. J (thanks for letting me know!) I think since your message a few have signed up anyway)
