Year 8 prepare for 'Hoops for Hounds' fundraiser

It’s a busy week for our Year 8s, who on Thursday are undertaking a challenge to raise money for ‘Hounds for Heroes,’ their chosen charity. They have organised a charity event called ‘Hoops for Hounds,’ with students being sponsored to shoot basketball hoops, having set themselves the ambitious target of getting 1000 shots on target!

Hounds for Heroes provide specially trained assistance dogs to injured and disabled men and women of both the UK Armed Forces and Emergency Services and Year 8 have already raised £1300 for the organisation. It looks set to be a great event and we wish them the best of luck! We will let you know how they get on.
