Discovery's May Fitness Challenge

Discovery Academy's staff and pupils have taken up a challenge in May to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support by swimming/ running/ cycling their way to 22miles! 

This fundraising and fitness challenge originally came from Principal Matthew Pike who is swimming the distance through the month - the equivalent to swimming the English Channel. Across the school, many have committed to also completing 22 miles in a range of other events with a goal of raising £2000 for cancer support. Matthew said:

"I'm really pleased that many staff and students have risen to the challenge - especially when the classes are getting involved too! Doing something like this gives us a common goal, a way of being generous and thinking of others."
