Second-hand items sales this March

Two Bannockburn Pupil Leadership Groups,  Eco Squad & Community Champions,  have been working together to organise second-hand item sales at both High Street and Manor Way sites after school this month; all the funds raised from the sales go to the Turkey & Syria Earthquake appeals organised by the DEC.

For our 1st sale, the children unpacked and organised the books, toys and clothes donated for sales at both sites and the sales raised over £50! The children were excited to help members of our global community and to encourage  people to buy and so recycle and reuse items to help our planet.

The next sale (further details TBC) will be a What You Can Spare sale, so you can buy any items you wish ,for whatever price you spare - bring a bag next time and get some bargains!

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."
