Sports Relief starts next week

Next week is a very important week, not only for Westfield Sports College but for the whole of the UK. This is because next week sees Sports Relief start.
Sport Relief is a national fundraising campaign when the power of sport is used to raise funds for worthy causes around the world. The motto for Sport Relief is to “GO THE EXTRA MILE” and Westfield Sports College hopes to do just that but furthermore as this is a special year, our Sport Relief week will have an Olympic theme.
In a PE lesson next week, it is hoped your son/daughter will run one mile and fully embrace the Olympic spirit. Therefore we are asking students to run in fancy dress and if possible Olympic fancy dress. There will be some prizes for the best Olympic themed fancy dress, however I wish to reiterate this is not compulsory. In addition to the prizes for Olympic themed fancy dress, points are up for grabs for the London Legacy Interhall Cup. Students can achieve these points by collecting the Olympic torches as they run around the pre-marked course.
Finally, I am pleased to announce that Westfield will have a non-uniform day on Friday 23rd March in the hope of raising funds for the charity. With the nature of the fundraiser, we are encouraging all students to wear sportswear that day.
It is important to not lose sight of the fact that Sport Relief is a fund raising campaign. We are not asking for students to seek sponsorship but we are asking students to donate a small fee in celebration of Sport Relief and to make a difference around the world.
