Mini Marathon Fundraising Success

Following the Easter break, our Year 7–9 pupils took part in the Mini London Marathon in Schools during their PE lessons, demonstrating fantastic perseverance, resilience and determination as they challenged themselves to run as far as possible within their allocated time. It was inspiring to see such enthusiasm for promoting healthy, active lifestyles across the school.

We are incredibly proud to share that, through their efforts and the generous support of our community, pupils have raised over £1,300 for Papyrus, a national charity dedicated to the prevention of suicide and the promotion of positive mental health and emotional wellbeing in young people.

Every step taken and every donation made will contribute towards supporting young people and raising awareness of such an important cause. Thank you to all pupils, families and supporters who helped make this event so meaningful.

Our Trust fundraising total is now just a few hundred pounds from hitting £20,000.
