On Saturday 22nd May, for the first time ever, Clockhouse children got the opportunity to participate in the London Marathon. Taking place the day before the full one, the mini marathon was a mile long course that started at Horse Guards Parade and finishing in The Mall. The children have been training hard for this event and at the start line, there was a mixture of nerves and excitement. Once the race started, all those nerves disappeared. All the children taking part performed brilliantly and were an absolute credit to the school.
A huge thank you must go to Mrs Ferreira, who has given up her time to train the children after school. Also to Mrs Polackova who has been helping with this. Finally a thank you to the parents who took the children up to London so that they could take part in this wonderful opportunity.
