i360 Charity Abseil

Next Thursday, 27 April, thirty brave Year 9 students, and a few staff, will be undertaking a breath-taking challenge to raise money for the Year 9 charity for this year, Raystede.

The staff and students will be abseiling 165 metres from the top of Brighton's iconic i360!

Raystede aims to alleviate animal cruelty, rescue, rehabilitate, rehome, and provide sanctuary for animals in need.

On Sunday 23 April our very own Head of Swimming, Mr Pocklington will be swapping the water of Brighton for the tarmac of London as he runs the London Marathon.

Mr Pocklington will be running in memory of his wife, Michelle, for the Martlets Hospice based in Hove, where she spent her final days. He would love it if you could spare a few pennies and donate via the link below, but, of course, only if you can! https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/weloveyoumichiemoo https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/roedeanschooly9

Mr Pocklington, we wish you all the luck in the world! Run well!

So far, 141 people have donated to support this event, raising £6739 for the charity. Impressively, Charlie has individually raised nearly £700, and, as a result, has won the right to choose when she would like to descend and the order of the staff! She has 'kindly' requested Mr Lutwyche to be the first to participate, which is especially apt as he really does not like heights!

Congratulations to everyone taking part, and we look forward to hearing all about the experience and seeing the pictures.

We set ourselves a target of £7500 pounds, so, if you would like to donate to support this incredibly exciting event, please follow the link below.

Thank you for your support!

Mr Wilson
