Year 8 Autumn Fundraising Fayre

This half-term, Year 8 have been focusing on their wellbeing and exploring different tools to help them manage their emotions and stress.

Whilst learning about their wellbeing, they have also been organising a Fundraising Fayre for the Charity Young Minds. Each tutor group chose an activity, created posters and advertised the event to the rest of the school.

8SZA ran a Pumpkin game, 8CDO sold sweets and had a ‘Pin the Sunflower on the Stalk’ game, 8NCO ran a ‘Beat the Goalie’ game, 8BBS ran a table tennis competition, which Daniel Benford won - congratulations! 8SRO sold hot chocolate, and 8AAM sold cookies and ran a ‘Trick or Treat’ basketball shootout competition.

The Autumn Fundraising Fayre was a HUGE success, and a real example of the students’ leadership skills. Year 8 managed to raise a total of £131.84 and created a lovely afternoon for the whole school community.

Well done to everyone that took part and donated!
