All participants will receive a Finisher’s Medal designed by the winner of our Medal Design Competition. The 2km Fun Run is open to children and adults, including former Boxgrove pupils!
Teacher Chase
Our bravest Boxgrove teachers will be given a head start in one shortened lap of the school grounds. Chasers who catch one of the teachers"tails’ will win points for their school house. The house with the most points at the end of the Chase will win the Chase Cup!
The Teacher Chase is only open to Boxgrove pupils (attending Boxgrove from September 2019). Limited Chaser places are available.
