Fundraising Cheque Presented
to St Luke’s Hospice
In December, student representatives from the College
visited St Luke’s Hospice and presented them with a cheque
for £1938.13.
This amazing total was raised through various fundraising
events at the College. The students had a question and
answer session and a tour around the hospice. They were
also asked to help decorate the memory Christmas tree
which was very moving.
Mrs Shore, Associate Leader, who accompanied the
students, said, “I was immensely proud of all of them as their
conduct was impeccable. So polite and respectful, a real
credit to the College.”

Generously Supporting
the Local Community
At the end of last term students, parents and
staff were invited to donate food and gifts to
support local community projects.
Helen Ryder, Head of Human Sciences, who
organised the collection, said, “A huge thank
you to everyone who has helped to make this
the most generous donation of food and gifts
ever. We were able to make a substantial
donation to the local Food Bank, support the
Christmas Day activities at the Watermark and
provide starter packs for the Salvation Army.
This is a wonderful way to support our local
community, thank you for making it a much
more positive start to the New Year than it could
have been.”
