Festive Fundraising at Abbey Wood Station

On Friday a group of Festive jumper-wearing Year 5 and 6 children from a combination of Pupil Leadership Groups - Community Champions, Junior Travel Ambassadors and Fundraising Team - visited Abbey Wood Rail Station, where they performed a selection of Christmas carols and festive hits for commuters using the station, who could make a donation in our collection bucket if they so wished. Their enthusiasm and effort created a " sterling performance" according to one of the customers using the station.

Kerry Vye, station event organizer said, "We are pleased to confirm that a total of £46.68 was raised in donations. This is amazing, particularly as the event was conducted during off peak time, which is the station's quieter period. Our station colleagues were overjoyed at having the children sing at Abbey Wood station, and the customer feedback and comments throughout the session were truly heart-warming."
