Autumn Term Updates

Fundraising for the Food Bank at Christmas

Saphia’s doing her fundraiser for the food bank for the 4th year in a row. She pledged to complete 1000 jumping jacks and 250 in exchange for sponsorship, and has so far raised £418 this year! 

This is a fabulous commitment to a worthwhile cause. If you are able to contribute to her Just Giving page the link is below, or please drop any change you may have into the pot at the office hatch - every little helps.
