Supporting Diabetes Uk
On 5 th July the newly renamed
S6 (previously
known as Room 15) was
buzzing with students
involved in a fundraising
day for Diabetes UK.
It was good to see so
many representatives from
Year 7 so keen to become
involved in this charity
event. If you were involved
don’t forget to look
at your Highcliffe Challenge
to see if you can be
signed off for anything…
HINT, HINT!
A lot of imagination went
into the various stalls.
Sadie’s marvellous marble
game was a real hit with
the crowds. The cake stall
was a sight to behold and
many members of staff
forgot dieting and came
along to sample the delicious
items on offer. Guess
the weight of the cake involved
students trying to
use various scientific/
mathematical formulae but
in the end was won by
sheer guesswork. Guess
the name of the dog
proved popular but was
slightly outdone by the
“Guess the number of
sweets in the jar”, the
prize here being the jar of
sweets!! Miss Artym demonstrated
a previous hidden
talent which certainly
did not appear on her CV-
Balloon modelling. Such
skills will obviously feature
on future job descriptions
for Teaching Assistants.
Sports Day saw many Year
7 students attractively in
Diabetes UK sashes, shaking
collection boxes and
raising nearly £50. Following
the Big Day itself a
massive £198 was raised.
A massive thank you to
everyone who got involved
either by donating,
organising or manning
stalls. The day was
a great success and
definitely lots of fun!
Year 7 should congratulate
themselves for their
fantastic efforts…. VERY
WELL DONE!!!
