Have a Goal! Our 'Building Resilience' theme for this term. My amazing Primary 7 children have set goals throughout the term and this is mine. One inspirational child in my class felt very passionately about helping to make a difference following the devastating destruction in Australia. The child launched a fundraising project in order to raise funds by knitting and selling clothing and jewellery to other children. I promised to help by running this half marathon and contributing funds. This is a very big challenge for me :)
I have chosen two charities for my run and will split the funds equally between the two:
* wwf.org.uk
* www.kcuk.org.uk
The first charity is to support the Australian Bushfires in partnership with my class.
The second charity is to support those affected with Kidney Cancer.
I am a very proud teacher watching young people go 'above and beyond' to make a difference in this world and taking small steps each day to reach their goals!
If you can spare a pound or two it would be very much appreciated!
