Ancient Greek Mini Olympics

Year 3 will be having their own mini Ancient Greek Olympics.  The children are invited to wear their own “chiton” over their P.E. kits.  This can be a sheet, a towel, a pashmina or a piece of material, draped over one shoulder and secured around the waist with a dressing gown belt or a rope.  The children will be running so knee length would be ideal.  We have talked about this in class and I have worn our table cloth so all the children know what they can use.  Please do not feel the need to buy an outfit, I myself will be sporting a rather nice cotton sheet!  I hope that they all decide to join in the fun, although it is not compulsory to dress up if they would rather not.  We are aiming to do this on the 18th of June (weather permitting) so if they could bring it in at the beginning of that week, in a named bag, we would appreciate it.

Thank you for your support – Mrs Fairhurst
