Story
It’s that time of year again! We are limbering up for Ark Academy’s second Annual Fun Run on Wednesday June 24 2015 at Wembley Stadium and are pleased to invite you to sponsor our students for this brilliant cause.
Ark Academy are hoping to raise £15,000 from this year’s Fun Run for our new Sixth Form building and need your support to reach our goal.
We are constructing a new building, which will be completed in early 2016, and want to raise as much as possible to develop what we hope will be a flagship Sixth Form in Wembley Park. This is a crucial addition to our school that will help us continue providing the excellent education our students receive and ensure they achieve their academic potential at A-level and beyond.
Students, staff and parents are running 1k laps around the outer concourse of the Stadium and to finish with a flourish, all runners will be completing a victory lap around the iconic Wembley Stadium pitch – very exciting stuff!
All of our students will be taking part to earn not only sponsorship but also House Points and there will be 5,000 points available for the House that raises the most money!
As the Fun Run is also a House Competition, please include the name of the student and the Form and House they are in when leaving your message of support, so that we know which House has raised the most money. Any donations that do not include this information will be placed in the overall fund.
This is a great opportunity to support our academy and we are immensely grateful for your donations. Whether you can give £1 or £50 please sponsor our students and staff online and join us on the day, if you wish, for the Fun Run which promises to be a fantastic day out!
If you are interested in helping out on the day as a race marshal, manning one of the refreshment stands or lining the route to encourage the runners on their journey please contact Suzie Mintern on 0208 385 4370 or at s.mintern@arkacademy.org.
