Concert and Cake

On Friday 7 March girls in Year 9 organised a concert and cake evening in support of Teenage Cancer Trust, CLIC Sargent and The Little Princess Trust.  The charities are very close to the girls’ hearts and they wanted to do something which they hoped would raise a lot of money

During the evening there was performances from vocal group Vocalessence, Year 9 musicians and solos and duets from girls in various year groups throughout the School.  There was also performances by pupils from The Royal Grammar School and Pipers singing teacher Julie Gossage's Lamphouse Singers.  Raffle tickets were sold throughout the week before the event and winners were revealed on the night of some exciting prizes including:

• an iPad 2 with case
•  two adult and two children tickets for a day at Woburn Safari Park
• £50 Amazon voucher
• a one night stay with breakfast for two at The Jurys Inn in Chelsea. 

Cakes were also donated by the wider Pipers community, which went down a treat with everyone.  The evening culminated in a grand final sing along to S Club 7 “Reach for the Stars”.  Everyone was on their feet in support to what was a great end to a spectacular evening of music.

The final total raised was an amazing £4,500 – a huge achievement for all the girls involved.

Director of Music, Mrs Moss said, “Concert and cake was a fantastic event run completely by the girls.  They sourced some fantastic prizes for the raffle and organised the music by themselves.  It was a great testament to how something can be achieved with passion and determination to create a successful event.  The staff and students at Pipers couldn’t be more proud of their efforts and very pleased with the amount of money that was raised for some great causes.”
