ON Friday, October 3 Year 9 pupils generously gave up their lunch to complete a fun run to raise money for the Macmillan Nurses.
They also held a cake break for those who did not take part. The girls had to run around the perimeter of the school grounds without taking any shortcuts. The event was organised by Apryl Payne of G2E Project who said: "I'm very pleased with all the people who took part, I'm extremely proud of the turnout."
The Guidance 2 Engagement Project (G2E) uses youth work to empower young people to come into school and complete accreditations.
The day’s events raised a total of £112. Miss Young, Head of Year 9 said: "A big thank you to the G2E girls who organised the cake break and fun run. Well done to all who took part."
