Dear All
This weekend there are a couple of junior races taking place! Good luck Ella and Henry Purcell in the Schools Cross Country event in Reading on Saturday morning… and then at 4pm on Calais Lane I will be hosting our own timed 1 mile and 2 mile junior cross country run! We are meeting on the lane at 3.45pm for a warm up.. so if you have half an hour to spare please do come along and support the junior runners! (email emma@turniton.co.uk for more details).
The Trihard kit has arrived! So please do email or visit Emma to pick up the lovely new TriHard colours ready for the 2017 season… And talking of the new season, well done Pete for entering the Cotswold Sprint on the 7th May! – As soon as the lake warms up I look forward to starting the swim training. In the update next week there will be more information about how everyone can join the local sailing club ready to start your open water swim training!
Finally.. please read below the message from Jane Smiley at the Mulberrybush School charity:
