What to do:

Inspired by this Cancer Research UK Tv Advert... I began to think what can I do... (As I am Muslim, I do not drink Alcohol.)


So I challenge you educators to TRY-ATHLON.

In September you must try the following things...12 in total! 4 School weeks in September- 3 a week. 

You can do them in any order you want!
