St Peter's Charity Football Match- Friday 27th June
St Peters school are hosting a charity football match on Friday 27th June in which both ourselves and St Bede’s have been invited to take part in. The match is due to start between 3:45-4:00 and the event will finish around 5:30pm. The event will take place on the field of St Bede’s High School (which is also shared by St Peters)
This is an optional invitation but we would love to bring enough children to take part and help make this a memorable evening. A large full football match will be played with rotating teams throughout the match. This a call out to everyone who is currently in the school football teams this year- Boys A Team, Boys B1 and B2 and Girls team.
If enough people are interested, there is a possibility of there being a parents game as well! (Teachers included).
Children will be picked up from school as normal at 3:20pm and will need to be taken to St Peter’s. There will be food vans and stalls so you may bring some money with you if you wish. Children are to be wearing their school football kit and they will need boots, shin pads and a drink. If you do not have a school football kit, then please wear blue clothing or any blue football kit.
We will play an hour long game with it being split into 4 x 15 minute games. Each team will play 15 minutes each e.g Girls, Boys A , Boys B and parents.
Please take the time to read about Patrick’s story and complete the form below if you are interested.
‘We are raising money to celebrate and honour the life and legacy of our beloved friend and coworker Patrick McCready.
Whilst working at St. Peter’s as our site supervisor, Patrick undertook the role of Girls Football Coach due to his experience and passion for the sport.
Every week, he would take to the field to coach the girls, and take them to their matches with other local primary schools.
However, his love for the game was not just saved for his beloved U11s team. It was a mainstay of our school. From chanting songs with the children on the playground to talking to pupils about the weekend’s results, Patrick’s love for football was clear and he shared it with all.
As such, in his memory, we will be raising funds for Rosemere Cancer Charity. This will take place through various means but will culminate on the 27th June, when we will be hosting a football match in his name.
This will allow our school community to celebrate his life, his passion and the impact he had on so many of our pupils.
All funds raised will go to Rosemere Cancer Charity, a cause close to Patrick’s family, supporting vital cancer care and services in our local community.
Please donate what you can and help us make a difference in Patrick’s name.’
