KS2 Mini Olympics @ Maiden Castle
June 19 @ 9:30 am - 2:30 pm
PLEASE READ ALL THE INFO BELOW BEFORE BOOKING:
Notes for entries:
There is no restriction on the number of children that each school can bring, or the number of teams they can enter onto each sport.
Schools must ensure that the number of children allowed in various teams, matches the number of children attending.
Bookings will be first come, first served – if an event fills quickly this can’t be helped. The option of that sport will be taken off when the event is full so if you can’t see it – unfortunately it has already been filled.
Children should not be taking part in an activity in which they already play/compete in. As this event is focussed on trying something new and having fun.
It is a good idea to plan who is coming and which activities you have chosen in advance of booking opening.
Schools should provide at least one member of staff/responsible adult per event which they have entered, as events will take place in different areas of the centre.
Transport:
I will endeavour to book all buses as requested, but I can only guarantee one bus per school – due to restrictions on the number of vehicles available to us.
Due to the high volume of buses needed I can’t source all of these from our usual provider (Lee’s coaches). This means I am open to the charges of various companies, which increase at this time of the year. If schools wish to use their annual travel allowance for this event please note that the buses will be charged at a slightly higher price than for other events.
Notes for the day:
Children will need to bring a packed lunch with plenty of drinks.
They should also be prepared for the weather (it’s often colder than it looks at Maiden Castle as it’s quite exposed to the elements).
All schools will need to be aware of those children who cannot have their photograph taken (local press may be on site).
