All Saints pupils raise hundreds for Ukraine and Cafod

Monday, 4 April 2022 10:52

Year 5 and 6 pupils at All Saints Catholic Voluntary Academy in Glossop have raised hundreds of pounds for the British Red Cross in Ukraine and Cafod. 

Mr Steane's Class 4 decided they want to regularly fundraise for good causes and Cafod - an international development charity and the official aid agency of the Catholic Church. 

They have done a sponsored silence which raised over £800, and then a 'wear a hat' day which raised a further £80 for the Brain Tumour Research. 

The school said the teachers are so proud of the children's efforts and they have lots of other fundraisers planned.
