Restless Development .
On Thursday 1st July, The Oratory School pupils will team up in threes to take on a triathlon - swimming, cycling and running to the finish line whilst raising money for Restless Development and their schools chosen charity, Mind.
The event will take place at The Oratory and is designed to be inclusive and accessible to all abilities. Restless Development will provide training and fundraising resources to help you reach your goal. You'll also be working together as a team, and at the end - you'll cross the finish line and receive an eco-friendly and sustainable medal to take home and show off to all your friends and family.
