I went into St George’s School and gave a presentation about Gary (Edwards) and explained that he was a former pupil at the school.
Mrs Rolf, teacher, and the children in class 5 listened, and told me that they would like to fundraise in Gary’s memory, to contribute towards having a local screening session. The children themselves decided to have a sponsored swim in the school pool.
On 28th June the swimming took place and on 12th July the children counted the sponsorship money and they raised an amazing £515 for the charity!
I was honoured to be asked to return to school to give a £10 book token prize to Sreenidhu for raising the most amount of money, and to give special thanks to Toby for his help with organising this.
Well done Class 5 St George’s School!
