On Wednesday 25th June 2025 all parents and carers are welcome to come along and watch from 9.30am on our Wallace Fields Juniors Upper Field. To make the morning as fun as we can this year, we have decided to try something different this year. Sprints will be replaced with Track Relay races! We hope you enjoy the spectacle and make as much noise as you can during the running!
The timetable for the day is as follows (with approximate timings):
- 9.30 to 10.30/10.45am - All children will take part in mixed year group, mixed gender teams based on houses and do a circuit of field events on bases around the field.
- 10.30/10.45 am to 12.00pm - All children will take part in mixed gender relay teams based on houses and not ability. There will be four races per year group. Year 3 races will be first and year 6 races last.
- 12.00pm-12.10pm - If time permits their may be a parents race or two.
- Please note that timings are approximate and may be earlier or later; so please do get their early to avoid disappointment.
Entry for parents is through the gate onto the Upper Field via the alley not via the school office. There will be a cordoned off area for parents to stand. There will be no shade or seating available for parents/carers so please bring your own foldable chair or parasol if required. Unfortunately, we are also not able to offer toilets for parents/carers.
All children wear their school PE kits to school on the day. Please ensure your child wears a labelled hat or cap if it is hot and that you apply sun barrier cream before leaving home. It would be great for children to bring in a t-shirt in their house colour to wear on the day. All children must bring in a named water bottle.
No food must be given to the children at all and the children will remain under the care of their teachers for the duration of the morning. They will have their lunch at the usual time. For those who have a school dinner Twelve 15 will be doing a picnic lunch that day so all can eat on field. If you could help serve with the water bottle refill station then please email the school office on office@wallacefields-jun.surrey.sch.ukIf time, we hope to have a parent race at the end. So please wear appropriate footwear if you wish to take part. This event finishes as usual at lunchtime. Children will have lunch and return to class for the afternoon.
Children go home at the usual time at the end of the day and cannot be collected early.
If it is poor weather, then the following day is in the diary as an alternative. We will send you notice of any postponement.
