1. Champions Log Book BBC Children in Need 2015

2. What is Champions of Change? Welcome Champions! Champions of Change is a fundraising challenge run by you, the children! Children across the UK are going to be taking over their schools so they can raise as much money as possible for BBC Children in Need. Are you up for the challenge? Can you raise more money than ever before?

3. What is the challenge? Your lead teacher can help you along the way but we challenge you to: LAUNCH the programme through an assembly telling your fellow pupils and teachers about the challenge. Put the school’s fundraising ideas into ACTION! Assign a team member to each class to help them with their fundraising and ensure the teachers are teaching at least one of the subjects we have provided for them. They can choose from either Maths, English or PSHE lessons, or you could persuade them to do all three! Next, after all your hard work, it’s time to CELEBRATE with a huge and exciting Celebration of Champions Assembly. Give the classes a chance to show their fundraising efforts and make sure you entertain the school with lots of fun assembly activities. Why not do a dance off? Or a talent show - you could ask your teachers (very kindly) if they would like to do something on stage for charity – perhaps you could throw cream pies at them?!

4. The Log Book This Log Book contains a step by step guide for planning your school fundraising, from LAUNCH to ACTION to CELEBRATE. With a little help from your Lead Teacher and this Log Book… YOU’RE IN CHARGE. Good luck Champions!

8. Today you will each have a group role But these are all jumbled up! Can you match the names to the descriptions? Your job is to lead the discussion. You are not in charge, but you do decide whose turn it is to speak. You must make sure that everyone has their chance to share their ideas. You are responsible for writing down anything important that the group needs to remember. You can write in note form, as long as you can read your own notes! You will be responsible for sharing the group’s ideas with the rest of the class. Make sure you keep to the point and only include the important information. Your job is to make sure that the group sticks to the time limits set for each task. Make sure they don’t talk for too long about one idea, or get side tracked onto another topic! You are in charge of looking for any possible problems with the ideas that the group discuss. You should always be thinking about what could go wrong with any idea. Your job is to keep making sure that group members are sticking to the task, and that they have done everything that was asked of them.
