Ark's Sports Day Challenge · 11 July 2020
A new challenge has been set to the Ark community to collectively travel as far as possible around the circumference of the globe (40,000km in total) by walking, running and cycling from home. As part of the Pathways & Enrichment team (Charlotte, Deandra, Aoife, Maia, Natalie, Emily, Ben, Emma, Rebecca and Tasnim) we have set a team target of 1000km to be completed between 1st-15th July. All money raised will contribute to Ark School's Coronavirus Appeal - supporting more than 27,000 students across our network of 37 schools.
Homes are less equal than schools. Students from low income households are impacted much more significantly; there is a large inequity to access to computers and having a proper learning space to study. Therefore we expect there to a large variance in how much students have been able to learn since schools have been closed. This cohort risks losing all their hard earned progress in their exams next year, unfairly affecting their choices for their future. This crisis has affected everyone in its own way. For some children whose families have suffered illness or financial distress, there will be a high need for wellbeing support when they return to school.
Our schools are working hard to support these children and their families - I'm raising money to help.
