P6/7 are organising a whole school fundraising event for CancerResearch UK. Our Deerpark Race for Life will take place onThursday 6th June, 2019.

This will be an all day event with classes timetabled to be out on the track (timetable will be shared nearer the time).

Throughout the afternoon there will be a variety of fundraising events (guess the bear’s birthday, sweets in the jar,CRUK stall etc) on the field as well as music and hopefully a sunny,fun atmosphere.

All children who take part AND raise sponsorship will receive a medal in our medal ceremony at around 2:15pm.

Parents/carers are welcome to come along and cheer on their child’s class, as per timetable to be shared, however we would encourage as many people as possible to attend in the afternoon to add to the atmosphere/fundraising efforts. Please feel free to invite a friend!

Sponsor sheets are coming home today and there is also an online fundraising page available at

Please share far and wide!

P6/7 have worked incredibly hard on this event and we hope you can all come along and support their fundraising efforts on 6thJune.
