Mini Marathon Letter

Get Your Running Shoes Ready! TCS Mini London Marathon 2026 is coming to Woodlands
Dear Parents and Carers,
We are thrilled to announce that our school will be taking part in the TCS Mini London Marathon in Schools! This is a fantastic opportunity for our children to experience the magic of the London Marathon right here on our school grounds, joining thousands of children across the country in a celebration of health, movement and fun.
Event Details
- Date: Friday 1st May (we will confirm times closer to the day)
- The Challenge: A 2-mile route
- The Goal: To complete the distance or part of the course at their own pace!
The spirit of the Mini London Marathon is all about participation, not just speed. Whether your child wants to sprint the full two miles, jog with their friends, or enjoy a steady walk, they are encouraged to take part in a way that feels comfortable for them.
We want every child to feel the pride of crossing that finish line, regardless of how they choose to cover the distance. Plus, there is a great sense of community when the whole school works toward the same finish line!
What Your Child Needs
To ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable day, please make sure your child comes to school with:
- Appropriate Footwear: Comfortable trainers are essential.
- PE Kit: Children should come to school with full PE kit on this day.
- Your Cheers! We are looking forward to a high-energy day filled encourage and achievements.
Thank you for your continued support in keeping our school active!
Warm regards,
Miss Charles and Mr Anderson
