Coffee Morning For Macmillan Cancer Support.

School Council would like to say a huge THANK YOU to all the people who supported us  in our part in the  'The world's Biggest Coffee Morning'.


 We were delighted at the fantastic number of delicious cakes that were brought in to share.


Not only were the crowds fed but there were at least 12 plates left over! 
Does this  remind you of a very important Bible story?



The total money collected after all the cakes were eaten or sold was in excess of £175. We felt very proud of our school for making such a big contribution.
