Prep Charity


Our incredible students in Year 6 were absolutely delighted to welcome their families to the annual flagship Prep event - the Prep Captains' Challenge, in aid of Children with Cancer. With the support of Mr Urquhart and the Prep staff, an evening of bingo, wellbeing activities and a big-money auction were on the cards.

The students assumed a wide-variety of roles, from waiting staff, bingo callers, performers and judges, everything had been thought of. Families arrived for soft drinks outside and were afforded the opportunity to enter the charity tombola and to buy homegrown plants. Upon entering the Arts Centre Café, guests were welcomed by members of the Year 6 class who looked incredibly relaxed in front of the microphone. They took the chance to acknowledge the two 'birthday girls' present on the evening Nancy P and Mrs Ford (the latter seemingly would have happily had her birthday fly under the radar), the former's birthday formed one of the bingo-calls "53 - Happy Birthday Nancy".

A game of bingo, with a number of exciting twists entertained students and parents alike, before an enormous array of homemade canapes, both sweet and savoury, cooked by our (Michelin-ish) star chef Mr Urquhart. Attention then turned to the auction, where more than a dozen incredible items were auctioned off. The generosity of parents and local businesses in sourcing an array of items, and furthermore the generosity of those in attendance, who came with an open mind and an open wallet, and we are delighted to report that all monies have now been counted and we have raised £3,393.22 for this incredible charity.

The stars of the evening were undoubtedly the students who were mature beyond their years, ensuring that their families had a wonderfully relaxing evening.
