Charity Drive

12/18/2020

0 Comments

 
Over the last week the year 12 and 13 students have organised and ran a number of events to raise money for different charities, including Students4Students and GBC Open Day.

​Please note that masks were worn inside the school and as the students moved from location to location and distancing was observed throughout.

Here is a summary and  photos of the events.
Football Tournament
This was organised by Ms Agius' Year 12 form class. The students Ewan Smith, Ryan Faraj and Finley Cawthorn.
Each form class in years 7, 8 and 9 entered a team for the tournament and each player paid £2.
​The tournament took place at lunch time.
Basketball Tournament
The format for the basketball was the same as the football but this was for Year 11, 12 and 13.
This was also run at lunch time. This was organised by Manu Merida and Tom Odoki from Ms Agius' form class.

Santa Hats
This started on 1st December where one different student and one different teacher would begin to wear a Santa hat each day. This meant that by the end of the term 22 teachers and 22 students would be wearing the hat. This was organised by Ms Johnson's form class.
Sponsored Walkathon
All year 7, 8 and 9 students were given a sponsored form and they were asked to walk a particular route around the school in their form bubbles. They were led by Santa and his elf.
Aryan Dhanwani, David Lester, Jesse Figueras and Luis Thoppil-Poyatos from Ms Johnson's class organised the forms, route, costumes and logistics.
Registration Music
In lieu of an end of term concert, year 12 music students collected money from staff and pupils for song requests. They then played the requests during registration and lunch time. The idea originated when year 12 student Nicholas Mace-Borda started busking outside the school to raise money for charity and wanted to do the same inside the school.
This was organised by students in Ms Cheeswright's and Mr Richardson's class and co-ordinated by Ms Madden and the music department. Christian Correa (year 12) organise the event.
Return of the Elf
The now traditional spinathon where we cycle the distance to Lapland to return the Elf to Santa.
This was organised by the Year 13 responsibility team.
The highlight of the week was when Year 13 student Charlie Walker cycled for 8 straight hours beating his own record set last year where he cycled for 7 hours.

'AMONG US' TOURNAMENT
Dino Charvetto and Aidan Brion from Mr Richardson's year 12 form class organised an '​Among Us' tournament during lunchtime. Students in years 7, 8 and 9 each had a separate competition and paid £1 to compete.
Other activities
There was a dress down day organised by Mr Santos and Mrs Jessen's form class. They gave chocolates to the most Christmassy year 7 students.
Michael Jarman and James Rosado in Ms Cheeswright's year 12 class planned a quiz for today but we have postponed it until the new year.
