Swattenden
Year 3 are having the time of their life at Swattenden. The day focuses on teamwork and personal challenges and the children, parents and staff are throwing themselves into the fun. As if we would do it any other way!
What a fantastic morning of sport our junior children have enjoyed. Thank you so much to the staff and students of Eltham Hill School for organising such a brilliant event. The children absolutely loved it and there were some great individual and team achievements. Thanks also to the staff and the Dads who were up for a bit of fun at the end – and most of all, thanks to Miss Turner who put so much time and effort into the day. We loved it!
China, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Kenya, Nigeria….. we are travelling all around the world today and learning a little bit about other cultures. Our children and families speak more than 24 different languages and it’s really fun learning what makes us different and what makes us the same. Thanks to the parents and grandparents who came to tell us about their cultures and traditions and who supported staff to plan a really fun-packed day.
A summary of the day with video can be found here – http://www.peddlemywheels.com/school-bike-markets or see below
How it works –
● 08:00-09:30: drop off bikes for selling and we tag them with your details. These are added to the selection of children’s bikes (and adult on request*) we bring along.
● 09:30-15:30: mechanic checks every bike and makes minor repairs where necessary
● people selling bikes will get a valuation of the bike sent via email and a link to a secure site for inputting their bank or PayPal details for payment to be made when the bike sells
● there is a 25% commission charge on all bike sales which we deduct once the bike is sold
● 15:30-16:30: market opens for people to buy bikes. We accept credit cards and cash
● sellers will receive an email when their bike sells and a money transfer will be made the Monday after it sells
● unsold bikes are taken with us to be sold at other markets and payments are made once sold
● if the seller wants to take their unsold bike it is their responsibility to collect at the end of the day
● Any questions – please email info@peddlemywheels.com * Any adult looking for a bike for themselves should complete a ‘Market Order Form’ on our website at least 48 hours before the event and we will try and bring something suitable along.
