This week was Sixth Form Charity Week and so, it was filled with a range of events to raise money for three chosen charities: MND Association, The John Muir Trust and Sasha’s Project. These are all charities that support causes close to our hearts and we are so grateful for all the support that we’ve received.
On Monday, bad weather did not suspend play as the Staff vs Sixth Form Rounders match was changed into a Volleyball match instead. With music playing, spectators seated, and a large bake sale close by, the match began. Some would say that you’d just have to be there to witness the athletic prowess and others would simply tell you to picture a battle of the titans. As of now, the true winner of the match is still under contention. Either way, it was highly competitive and thank you so much to all who participated and came to watch!
Tuesday brought the whole school treasure hunt and a clear calling to many pupils to take up code-breaking. The various clues took the teams from the School Nurse to the PE Department to reveal an anagram of LIBRARY which was the final destination. The prize of a ‘Sol de Janeiro’ giftset proved to be tempting and enthusiasm remained high in all the groups. Precise times are currently being calculated and the winners will be announced next Monday!
On Wednesday we held a Mufti Day with the theme of blue and orange, the charity colours of MND Association. Everyone really made an effort and searched their wardrobes to find each colour and a special shoutout must go to Mr McCready for having blue and orange striped trainers!
After many weeks of choreography and rehearsals, Thursday finally provided staff with the opportunity to demonstrate their talent in the Lip-Sync Battle. The crowd arrived with high expectations and the hit music, sparkly outfits and innovative dance moves did not disappoint! In the end, it was our virtual noise-o-meter which determined the winners to be the SLT+ team with their delightful performance of I’m just Ken. Thank you so much to all who participated as I know it took a lot of time and effort and they all certainly made for an entertaining watch!
‘Break the Rules Day’ today has been long-awaited and did not disappoint! Organised by the CAFOD Young Leaders, it provided an opportunity to break some of the most disputed school rules. Many colourful highlights and drop earrings could be seen and Sixth Form took it one step further by having a pyjama day! Sadly, Sixth Form Charity Week 2024 has come to an end but, thank you so much to everyone who came to any of the bake sales this week or purchased a ticket for the raffle. Your actions have held true to Farnborough Hill’s mission to make a positive impact on our community. And finally, a massive thank you to all the people who helped to make the events this week possible.
