    Dear Parents/Guardians,

    We are thrilled to announce that five of our Year 5 girls—Emmy, Grace, Jasmine, Amelia, and Lidia—are taking part in a remarkable initiative to raise funds for Cancer Research UK. Inspired by a Newsround report on cancer, these determined young girls are eager to contribute to the search for a cure.

    To support this noble cause, the girls will be running laps during their playtimes and lunchtimes for 20 days, from 28th April to 23rd May. Their dedication and enthusiasm are truly commendable, and we kindly ask for your support in sponsoring their efforts.
