Ripley Charities Week
Roll up, roll up! It’s Ripley Charities Week and there’s lots of fun(d)raising going on.
Today (Tuesday), we held a funfair on the astroturf at lunchtime in the blazing sun – good job too as Mr Bithell, Mrs Berry, Mr Henderson and Mr Greenacre took a soaking. Well, to be fair, it was mostly aimed at Mr Bithell!
There was also a Penalty Shootout with special froggy guest, Hook a Duck, a sweets and treats stall, a special egg delivery service to buddies and teachers, guess the sweets in the jar and a lemon balance task (well done Mr Barton)!
UPDATE 22/4 – the winner of the Guess How many Sweets in the Jar was Lily-Rose in Year 8 and the winners of the House point Eggstravaganza were Grace K, Ava W, Sophie C and Alfie D!
Pupils paid a small contribution to enter the astroturf and individual donations for the stalls of their choice – all for good causes.
Well done to all the Sixth Form, House Captains, Mrs Montgomery and Year 11 pupils who helped to organise this. More to come this week so bring your cash for Thursday’s events – which staff member will be ‘under the sponge’ on Thursday?
