Congratulations to the Year 9 team for winning £1,000 for their chosen charity WAY Widowed and Young. The team (pictured in blue) were one of four taking part in the First Give event in which students choose a charity and raise money and awareness about it before giving a presentation on it to a panel of judges. The winning team were given £1,000 by First Give, an organisation that aims to engage students in social action. They were delighted to present the cheque to Joanna Sedley-Burke of WAY Widowed and Young.
