Hide AdTeams from local businesses will also be taking part in a special 'grown ups' race at 1pm.
The children’s races start at 1.30pm and will be cheered on by a large turn-out of parents, class mates and spectators.
This year’s event is supported again by Tesco, providing the prizes; The Globe supplying hot pancakes; and Thomas Lloyd in the Market square brewing coffee to keep the crowds warm.
A trophy will be awarded to each winning team.
Rotary club organiser Jackie Crampton said: “This is a nice way to keep a tradition alive.
"We are hoping for a nice spring day after all the recent storms.
"Warwick Rotarians are out in force to marshall the event and this is one of the events we arrange for the local community.”
