ShipShape sessions
When: 9am - 3pm, Saturday 29 March and Saturday 3 May
Where: Across the school grounds
Not just a brilliantly fun tongue-twister, our Shipshape Sessions are also a chance for you to roll up your sleeves and make a visible difference to our school grounds!
We'll be pruning, trimming back, tidying and clearing around the school grounds to help school gardener Agnes get our gardens ready for Spring.
It'll be all hands on deck! Children are welcome to join in, and we will find plenty of activities they can get involved with.
The sessions will run between 9am and 3pm, you can help for an hour, a morning, an afternoon or all day - whatever time you can spare will be hugely appreciated and will help us improve the grounds ready for lots of fun and activities as the weather improves.
Refreshments and biscuits will be provided for all helpers!
Bakes, bikes and bands
When: Friday 28 March, from 3.15pm until about 4.30pm

Mayfield Orchestra
And alongside all of the above, our wonderful Mayfield Orchestra will be playing a few of their favourite tunes.
Led by Anne Taylor, music is a fantastic part of Mayfield life and the Mayfield orchestra is a core part of that. Anne also runs ukelele club, samba club, the Mayfield choir, supports music in classrooms and gives individual lessons to Mayfield pupils.
TCS Mini london marathon
When: Saturday 26 April 2025
Where: London!
We're excited to announce that Mayfield Primary School is entering the ballot for places for the TCS Mini London Marathon!
Yes, your child could run over the actual finish line of the actual London Marathon in this amazing event that also raises money for the school!
What
There are two distances (1 mile and 2.6km), both starting at Horse Guard's Parade and finishing on The Mall (where all the London Marathon runners finish!).
This iconic run offers your child the chance to experience the wonderful atmosphere of a large run, with children taking part from all over the country.
On top of that, for every child who finishes their distance, TCS will donate £10 to Mayfield to be spent on sporting or IT equipment.
When
The TCS Mini London Marathon will be held on Saturday 26 April (the day before the full Marathon).
How can you get involved?
We can register up to 25 runners for the 1 mile distance and 15 runners for the 2.6km distance. We then go into a ballot for places and will find out in February if we are going to London!
The 1 mile distance is open to children in any year group at Mayfield, but the longer 2.6km run is for children in Year 4 and up.
APPLICATIONS ARE NOW CLOSED AND WE ARE AWAITING NEWS FROM THE TCS MINI LONDON MARATHON BALLOT PROCESS
More details about the event, including route maps, can be found on the TCS Mini Marathon website.
