Following the success of last year’s FunNite we are holding another this year on Friday 16th March. Come along, join in the fun and help us to raise funds for St Andrew’s Hospice. Let’s see if we can raise even more than last year!

Thank you to staff and pupils who either collected or donated toys for the “Give a toy, spread the joy” appeal. Over 150 items were donated!

Today’s cake decorating session with the teachers and pupils who are in the Charity Committee. We have 150 Pudsey cup cakes to sell tomorrow!

Thanks to pupils much for all nominations and Votes for our supported Charities this year.

The votes have been counted and it gives the charity committee great pleasure in announcing the results:

Hope for Autism, Cancer Research UK and UNICEF
(information on each is given in attachment)

These winning 3 charities will have the money collected during various charity events through out the year divided amongst them.
There will of course be other stand alone events for other notable and worthy charities as well i.e. Children in Need, Comic Relief etc.

Charity Committee

Our grand total raised was £496. Thank you to everyone who took part, especially the 4 senior pupils who gave up lots of their own time selling merchandise – Scott Brand, William McEwan, Matthew Paul and Lindsay Rideout. Veronica Sweeney (covering Catering Manager from the school canteen) also made all of the cakes for us and Liz Brannan was our chief cake decorator!

The senior pupils in the school’s charity team are organising Red Nose Day events which include selling the official merchandise in the social area at lunchtimes and also a novelty bake sale on Friday 24th March.
