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 ยฃ515 for the charity!
I was honoured to be asked to return to school to give a ยฃ10 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!
Hilary Edwards
