🦆 Duck Race Fundraiser – Join the Fun! 🦆

16th Mar 2026

Get ready for our next exciting event — our School Duck Race Fundraiser!
For just £2, you can buy a duck, give it a cheer-worthy name if you wish, and watch it join the flock as it races down the waterway!

How It Works

  • When you purchase your duck, you’ll receive your very own racing duck marked with a special number.
  • On Thursday 26th March, our School Building Supervisor, Andy will unveil a specially constructed waterway — the official Duck Race Course!
  • Ducks will be released into the waterway to compete in:
    • Class Races
    • Year Group Races
    • Year Group Finals

All race winners will go head-to-head to crown our Overall School Duck Race Champion!

Why Join In?

This is a brilliant fundraising event that brings the whole school together. Children (and adults!) will love cheering on their ducks as they bob, zip, and splash their way toward the finish line.

Whether your duck is speedy, stylish, or simply determined, everyone will have great fun taking part in this quacky competition.

Don’t miss out — buy your duck for £2 (cash only) and join the race!
