Find out how we can help you👇🏻
The sun has been shining for the start of our summer term so far but seeing as it has dipped a little this afternoon, we thought we`d bring you a splash of colour from right before Easter. Our Young Changemakers, a team of sixth form pupils, working with @hospiscaredevon, learning about end-of-life care and how to support fundraising efforts, brought our annual Colour Run into life for our Years 7 and 8 pupils.
They got stuck in and the professional organisation, care and support they offered to their younger counterparts shined through in the smiles. We`ll catch up with them and bring you the total amount raised soon 👏
