Charity Morning - 28th May 2010

On Friday 28^th May we held our Charity Morning in aid of local charity The Garwood Foundation. The Croydon based charity provide care and other services for adults and children with cerebral palsy and related disabilities.

A new format this year saw the whole school community from the Headmaster to the youngest nursery child – and all in between – take to a mile-long running circuit to run as many laps as possible and raise money for this very worthy charity. The boys had worked long and hard to gain sponsorship for the event, as well as donning costumes of various descriptions to add to the enjoyment of the occasion.

After the run over 400 balloons were launched and the boys looked up in wonder as they floated off into the sky to unknown destinations which will be plotted over the coming weeks.   SuperCamps very kindly sponsored the balloons.

It is always an enormous privilege to raise money for a charity that provides such a crucial service in the local community. We hope to raise in the excess of £6,500.
