It’s back again….the Aldrington Colour Run 🌈Join us for an exciting event in the POA calendar!
Start your bank holiday weekend with a burst of colour where Aldrington will run, skip, dance or walk their way through our specially designed track. Pass through the sprinklers and look out for colour throwers to get as bright as possible!
Compéred by Aldrington’s very own Mr Miles, join in the warmup with an upbeat playlist 🎶

How to buy tickets
Inclusivity commitment
The POA and the School want our events to be accessible to all children. If you’re in financial hardship and your child would like to attend this event, please contact the school office in complete confidence. This will enable the School to discuss your circumstances and if appropriate arrange payment of the event fees for you from our fund. Your request and data will not be shared with the POA.
Help needed…
We rely on a team of super Aldrington parents to ensure events are a success so please join in the fun: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/8050444ACA72CA0F49-63060554-aldrington#/
Health and safety bit….
- Paint powders are cornstarch based and made with natural food colouring dyes.
- All children are the full responsibility of parents/guardians once they have been collected from the teaching staff at the end of the school day. Children turning up to the event without an adult (who must stay on the field) will sadly not be permitted to run.
- First aid/eye wash station available.
- If needed; any personal medical equipment i.e. inhalers/epi-pens) must be bought with you on the day.
- Disclaimer – by purchasing tickets, I agree that the POA have no responsibility for my child and any medication my child may need is the responsibility of the parent/guardian at the event.
- Fun colourful sunglasses will be provided whilst you race – these are to be returned for the next group of runners. You may also bring your own or use goggles if you wish.
And finally
Bring a blanket, bring a picnic, catch up with your friends and relax in the knowledge that it’s the start of a 3-day weekend! Do you have further questions? Email parentsofaldrington@gmail.com
