Fundraising Day
On Friday 18th September we are asking everyone to wear red and/or blue to school. This is to support us in remembering our pupil, Saqib Raza Ahmed, who very sadly lost his life to a cancerous brain tumour on the 4th October 2021, just 2 weeks after his 5th birthday. This day will help us to honour what would have been his 10th birthday on the 19th September. We have chosen red and blue as these were Saqib’s favourite colours.
Milly’s Smiles was one of the charities that supported the family during this difficult time, and we would like to raise money to recognise this.
To donate towards Millys Smiles in memory of Saqib on Friday 18th, please send the money to school with your child to give to their teacher. The charity will greatly benefit from our donations as September is also childhood cancer awareness month.
