NSPCC - Full Stop
In the autumn term Mrs Sharp came to speak to the 10-14 year olds about the very varied work of the NSPCC and in particular its FULL STOP campaign, which aims to end cruelty to children. She invited the pupils of S1 and S2 to raise money with a sponsored spelling event. This raised a magnificent £1,613.08. Many thanks to all the spellers and their supporters.

Children in Need
This year's fund raising for 'Children in Need' has been amazingly successful. There were several fund raising activities.
The juniors filled 'Reward' (or Fines'!!) boxes - greatly appreciated by the parents! They also covered Pudsey with stickers. The winners were Amy van Zyl and George Rutter.
Heather Gibson of 4Y wrote a special play and she and her friends from 4X and 4Y, Joanne Copson, Violette Pretorius, Sophie Manion, Ashley Blackwood, Isabelle Chastney, Phoebe Hunt, Freya Milne and Josie Lynch performed it in assembly. Heather asked for donations and the inspectors were so impressed they gave a donation too! This helped Heather raise £37.
The teachers had two competitions of 'Spot the Ball' type. The winners were Mrs Bray and Dr Ewington.
In total we raised £583.68 - a truly splendid achievement.

Many thanks to Sheryl Barnacle from Cancer Research who came to talk to Senior 3 about the work of the charity. Also many thanks to friends, parents and teachers who sponsored the group, Mrs Smith for donating cakes for their cake sale and to everyone who bought them! The group of four – Beth Parkes, Danielle Pinckney, Katherine Moncur and Charlotte Paul raised over £500 for the charity. Congratulations.
