Friday
In
October 2020 105 staff took part
in our One World Marathon event
alongside all Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4
students. A fantastic effort from all led to staff
accumulating 138 miles, meaning we logged
5 full marathons as a staff team.
As a partner of the One World Marathon, the
students and staff at Cranford Community
College have really promoted and encompassed
the core values of the One World Marathon of
collaboration, unity and working together in
our efforts to complete miles.
My aim this year was simply to beat last year’s
total of 33 student marathons but also to use
the event for staff to promote wellbeing, create
new role models for students and a reminder
that during these un-precedent times we
can still have fun (social distancing & rules
considered). This shows how much of a team
we are at Cranford.
The team and I appreciate that not all staff
were 100% comfortable running or walking
around the field but without sounding cheesy
they have broken a barrier and potentially a
barrier that was stopping many other students
from getting involved in Physical Activity.
They now have 99 other roles models in school
to help promote the importance of physical
activity and wellbeing.
A truly outstanding effort from us all has led
to a staff and pupil total of 1184 miles and 45
marathons – Simply Amazing! A BIG Thank
You from all the Sport Team.

sports runs every Friday after school.
The focus of Staff Sports is wellbeing
and staying physically active while also socialising with
teachers across departments promoting the community
aspects of our school. A range of sports and activities is
on offer so anyone can get involved including fitness,
football, tennis and badminton.
The Friday sports has made finishing busy weeks much
more enjoyable allowing for a good mental break before
heading into the weekend alongside some friendly
rivalries as staff challenge others to games of short tennis
and table tennis outside, badminton and Tennis.
Below are some quotes from staff who have taken part
on a regular basis:
“I have really found the after school sports sessions played
a huge role in helping me take better care of my physical
health. I got advice on how to work out and how to improve
my form during the exercise. It’s been really useful and I am
very grateful to the team for helping us prioritise fitness”.
“It was fun and a chance to engage with colleagues over
something other than teaching”.
We hope to continue with more sports in September!
