The College goes Shopping for Funds in ASDA

On Saturday 23rd November, 3 members of staff, Mr Begusch, Ms Lockett (MFL) and Mr Nelson (Maths) and four pupils were involved in a fundraising project in ASDA, Norris Green. The pupils were, Lucy and Erin of Year 9, Demi and Jack of Year 7 and George of Year 8.

The aim of the project was designed to raise funds for an educational school trip to Malaga, Spain next year and to support Project Ghana – a charity project to equip schools in deprived communities in Ghana.

The bag packing started at 9am in the morning and lasted till 2pm in the afternoon. In brief, it was a new experience, fun and rewarding.
