Dear Parents and Supporters of our Froebelian Family,

You may be aware that we embark on the FIVe Steps Challenge for children in Form IV (Year 6). This is a personal development programme which encompasses a range of challenges: physical, mental, creative, citizenship and life skills.

This September the children will begin with their Physical Challenge by embarking on The Three Peaks Challenge 2024, walking Ingleborough, Whernside and Penyghent and raising money for our designated charity for the year - Young Minds.

During the challenge, the children will stay in basic accommodation in Ingleton, where they will partake in a range of domestic duties, including cleaning, washing up and helping with the preparation of food.

This walk is, as you can appreciate, an arduous one for adults and is a tremendous achievement for 10 and 11 year olds. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

YoungMinds is the UK's leading charity championing the wellbeing and mental health of children and young people. Driven by their experience, YoungMinds creates change so that children and young people can cope with life's adversities, find help when needed and succeed in life.
