Pierre Henry-Fontaine visit to Brookland!

Thank you so much to all the children for raising lots of money over the last few weeks for Sports for Champions. 

The children had a fantastic time participating in the fitness circuit ran by Pierre Henry-Fontaine (professional basketball player). His assembly was truly inspiring.  He spoke about the importance of fitness and training, maintaining a healthy, balanced diet, working hard, as well as explaining that anything is possible if you want it enough.

In total we raised £1792, £800 of that is for Brookland Junior School to spend on anything associated with sports/keeping active.

The children’s committee will be asked this week for their opinion on what they think the children at Brookland would like to spend the money raised on.

A special congratulation to Cedar Class for raising the most money out of all 12 classes.  They have been given a certificate for this achievement.  Well done Cedar.

We had 22 children raise over £35, each having their photo taken with Pierre to take home as a keepsake.  We also had 64 children who raised between £5-£34.99, taking home a post-card/poster of Pierre. 

A great achievement Brookland.  Well done everyone
