Christmas toy appeal success
Our thanks to all our pupils and families who donated and contributed to our Christmas Toy Appeal. Through this appeal we have been able to donate hundreds of toys and gifts to those in the local area in need this Christmas.

Grace, Jacob and Harry, pictured below, who are Year 8 Form Prefects. They took the initiative to generate enthusiasm within their Form to collect a huge range of toys and food items for our toy appeal and food drive. They showed real leadership and generosity of spirit in leading the collection in their class. Well done.
Christmas carol Torches as well as the exciting Whenever the Wind is High before everyone joined in with We wish You a Merry Christmas
A fantastic evening, which demonstrated some superb musicianship. Thanks go to Ms Pearson, Mr Quick, Mr Hayton, Mrs England, Mr Bartlett and Mrs Redhead.
Christmas food parcels delivered across the local area
It has been a long-standing tradition here at Hymers to deliver food parcels at Christmas time to those in the local area most in need.
Our thanks to everyone who contributed to the collection this year. Numerous parcels were made up by our Sixth Form volunteers who also helped get them into the van ready for distribution. We know that the parcels bring much delight to the recipients and are well-received.
