Please follow the instructions in the race packs about race plates and numbers on arms. Bikes and Helmets (please name - write names on back of race plates and on helmets). The timing chips for years 5 & 6 only are NOT in the packs, but will be given out at the event prior to their race. Y1-4 events are not being timed. Timetable - link to the challenge timetable for more information The buses will not wait for children who are late. Please be prepared for traffic. BUDDIES
There will be Yr 6 buddies to support our younger athletes, as identified by their teachers, for their races. Please make sure your child’s class teacher knows if your child cannot ride a bike. Non-swimmers have the option of running along the beach instead of entering the water. RACE FINISH
Once the children have finished their race they will congregate in the finishing tent. We will not allow children to leave this tent until all children have finished the race. A year group teacher will then take all students back to the WPS tent where if you are taking your child after their race (they are not returning to school) you MUST sign your child out with Charlotte. This will only happen at the WPS tent before we climb on the bus. Please do not take your child from the finishing tent. WHAT TO TAKE ON THE DAY - HELMET

*** a few tattoos have ended up in the wrong bag. If this is the case please just ask them to write their tattoo number with a vivid on their leg. *** TShirts have been put in each bag however some children will have the wrong size as these were ordered in July from last year's sizing list.
