In a remarkable display of determination and spirit, a group of 17 ten-year-old children are gearing up to take on a full adult Olympic Triathlon throughout the month of June. This extraordinary effort is not just a test of their physical endurance but also a testament to their commitment to making a difference in their community.
The children, all students of Stone’s Walton Priory Middle School, have set their sights on completing a 1.5km swim, a 40km bike ride, and a 10km run. This is no small feat, but these young champions are motivated by a cause close to their hearts.
They are raising funds to support two important causes: the Children’s Departments at North Staffs Hospital (UHNM) and their own school’s forest school project.
The funds raised will go towards providing a new roof for the forest school at Walton Priory Middle School, a project that will greatly enhance the learning experience of the students. The remaining funds will be used to support the children’s departments at North Staffs Hospital UHNM, a cause that resonates deeply with our young triathletes.
These 17 children are not just participating in a triathlon; they are embodying the spirit of community and the power of young people to effect change. Their endeavour is a shining example of how even the smallest efforts can make a significant difference.
We are incredibly proud of these young Stone champions and their brilliant effort. Their dedication and enthusiasm are truly inspiring, and we are confident they will reach their fundraising goal.
We invite you to support these fantastic kids in their endeavours. Any contribution, however small, will be greatly appreciated and will go a long way in helping them reach their goal. You can donate to their cause through their JustGiving fundraising page here.
Join us in cheering on these young champions as they embark on this incredible journey. Together, we can help them make a difference.
