A fantastic community fundraising event took place at Fir Vale School in December when students hosted 90 guests for a special evening. The event was organised as part of the appeal to support students who are helping build an Orphanage in Ghana next Easter.
Guests enjoyed an evening of student performances, a 3 course meal served by the students and a variety of fundraising activities. With the generosity of local businesses, we were able to host an auction which helped towards our overall fundraising target of £28,000. The money raised on the night reached an incredible £4,000.
The students’ efforts and commitment were highly commendable and a credit to the school and the fundraising project.
To date students at the school have raised £18,200 and are continuing their efforts to raise the remaining £9,800.
