At Discovery, several staff members have embarked on fitness challenges including the goal of swimming / walking / cycling / canoeing the equivalent distance of crossing the English Channel during the month of May (22 miles or 35km  in total) All money raised will be donated to Macmillan Cancer Care.

Once the young people in school heard of this they wanted to join in too. Therefore in some classes all students will accomplishjthe22 miles over the month, in others they aim to complete the distance in a single day working as a team and taking part in a relay.

The official fundraising launched in mid-April if you would like to join or sponsor us! We have set a target of £2000.
