CURRENT STANDINGS

How can I join in?

1. Join a House. Choose your House team: Blue, Green, Yellow, or Red. Everyone must sign up to one of these to take part - see Strava links below. Your child will be able to tell you which House they are in at school.

2. Pay your Participation Fee. Follow the gofundme link below for your chosen House in order to start registering your kilometres. We are suggesting a £10 entry fee for adults and £5 for children; each person participating will need to pay a fee to join.

3. Get active. Enjoy the sun, get out and active! We all know the benefits moving our bodies gives to both our physical and mental health - and during May, there'll be another incentive, our Tournament of Houses, raising money for our school! 

4. Watch the leaderboard. Every week, you’ll be able to see your group’s total kilometres on this website. At the end of the month, two Houses will win: the one with the highest number of kilometres (Roadrunner Prize 👟)  and the one which raises the most money (Magpie Prize 💰).

Rules: 

5. Who Can Join? Anyone can join a team — even your family and friends who live very, very, very far away!

6. Fundraising. You must pay at least the minimum fee to take part, but anyone can help raise money for a House. Each House has a dedicated gofundme page where you can track fundraising progress.

7. Logging Kilometres. You can log your distance in two ways: either join the group of your House on Strava (each has its link, see below), or email WOCPSHouses@gmail.com with proof of the kilometres you've run or cycled. One running kilometre is equivalent to four cycling ones. Also! If you're interested in joining the Town and Gown race alongside other parents, please email us, and we'll do our best to organize a group.

8. Oatlands Rec Meet-Up Day. At the end of the month, we’ll have a fun meet-up at Oatlands Rec (date and time weather-dependent!). Houses can run a km lap to boost their team’s total.

9. Final Awards. Strava and email records will close at the end of the day on 31st May. Once we have added the kilometres from the Oatlands Rec Meet-Up Day (whenever that is...!), the final leaderboard will be calculated, and we’ll announce which Houses have won the Roadrunner and Magpie prizes at that Meet-Up.

10. Enjoy it! The aim of this tournament is to get active and boost our Vitamin D whilst raising a bit of money for a worthy cause. We hope you will find participating fun; there's a bit of healthy competition but ultimately the school wins!
