Please bring an extra few pounds on Friday for some guilt free spending. Thanking you for your ongoing support for just trading with producers in poorer countries,

Silly Sock Day – Friday 9th November

This year, the S6 Higher Leadership class is raising money to buy Christmas presents for the children at CHAS’ Robin House hospice, which is having families staying there on Christmas Day for the first time. By paying 50p to wear the most ridiculous socks you own to school on Friday 9th November, you can help us kickstart our fundraising and allow CHAS to give the families of terminally ill children the best Christmas possible. We’re looking forward to seeing your silly socks!

Hint of Pink

Today Lourdes Secondary School turned pink in support of breast cancer research. Pupils were invited to wear something pink and volunteers from the Higher Leadership class teamed up with members of staff to raise awareness.

Amongst the festivities, there was a Teacher’s Blind Date, nail bar, bake sale and pink lemonade stall!

Overall, the day was a huge success and a great time was had by all. Thanks to the tremendous effort and hard work of staff and pupils, a total of £1,137.11 was raised.
