Lower
School Fund Raising
A massive £686 was raised for the Sir Malcolm
Sargeant Fund for leukaemia and other childrens
diseases, during a Readathon in October. The
lower school raised over £70 towards the Blue
Peter Breathe Easy Appeal, through
donations and the sale of cakes by lower site
librarians! A further £70 was raised from a book
fair at the end of November.

School
Shop in Crisis! The shop at Whinney Hill is in
dire need of rescue! We open from 12 - 1pm on
Mondays and Thursdays to sell stationery and the
other little necessities of school life. Members
of the PTA commitee, who have been running it,
are finding it very difficult to bear the burden
alone. Any adult or Sixth Formers reading this,
who could space an hour or so, please get in
touch with Mrs Roberts.
