Skipathon fundraiser

The Form 4 girls completed a 5 hour skipping marathon to raise money for the British Heart Foundation last Wednesday.  The girls organised themselves into teams to skip in shifts of half an hour, ensured that they had a good supply of sugary drinks and snacks, decorated T-shirts to promote their cause and finished the day off with a choreographed skipping display.  Every single one of them participated, many having to learn and rehearse new skipping moves during break times.  It was great to see them all pulling together, sharing their ideas and supporting each other.  We were really impressed with their commitment to the idea and the responsibility that they all took for the organisation of the event. 
We are incredibly proud of what they have achieved and BHF will be very grateful for the donation, in excess of £570, that we will be able to make.
