For the past two years we have worn yellow to raise awareness for young people’s mental health. We have completed a fun run, sold cakes and had a photo competition.

Through our house system at the end of the Christmas term we hold an annual charity day. There have been giant obstacle courses, the headteachers quiz and a Christmas fair.

October 2021 saw the first year that we wore pink and sold cakes to raise money for Breast Cancer.

Dementia UK was a new Charity that we raised money for this year. Students served cake and tea to staff during the day in return for a donation to Dementia UK.

Staff and Sixth form joined in the worlds biggest coffee morning raising valuable funds for Macmillan Cancer support.
