Today, we were delighted to hand over cheques to the two charities supported by this year’s Sponsored Walk, Horticap and New Beginnings.

Each charity received over £4,400 thanks to the incredible generosity and effort of our school community. Both organisations were thrilled and very grateful for the support!
