From bookmarks to cupcake sales, pupils raise over £1,700 for charity

Pupils from Avon House Preparatory School raised £1,784 for Haven House Children’s Hospice last term.

“Year 6 were challenged to come up with a community enterprise idea to enable them to turn £10 into £150 to donate to charity. Among the projects were personalised bookmarks, cupcake selling, second-hand clothing sales, sponsored dog walking, photo editing, portraits and storytelling. All of the projects were very inventive and well thought through. We are very proud of our entrepreneurial pupils,” said a spokesperson.
