On Friday 18th March the whole school really got involved in our annual Red Nose event.This is a great chance to raise money for those less fortunate than ourselves.
The day started with some video presentations about the Red Nose charity which focused on how the money would really help other young people.
The pupils all listened very carefully and really developed an understanding oh how hard life can be for some children in other parts of the world.
We then had an excellent display from the local Protection Civil unit. This is another voluntary organisation that plays a very important role in local community life. The children were allowed to see inside the ambulance and listened with great interest to the commentary from the officers.
The day went on with the Upper Secondary really entering into the spirit of the day by competing boys against girls to see who could raise the most money for charity.
This was part of their Business Studies work, and both groups worked extremely hard to get every last cent out of the rest of the school!
In the afternoon we were treated to some wonderful cup-cakes that had been lovingly iced by Years 5&6. All money raised from the sale went to the Red Nose fund.
The day finished with a massive rounders match with the Upper School narrowly beating the Lower School with the very last strike of the day.
All in all this was a wonderful day, and was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Congratulations to everyone who worked so hard to make this an outstanding success.
