Inspired and organised by our Head Girl team, Heathfield held a giving challenge from 17:00 hrs on Friday 22 to midday Sunday 24 April. Students, staff, parents, Old Girls and the wider Heathfield community came together in various challenges, events and activities, at School and online, to put the FUN into fundraising in aid of the Sixth Form Centre.
As well as the triathlon, the pupils enjoyed a haunted hunt, a Year 3000 disco, sponsored sleepovers and breakfast in bed. Within School, parents donated to become pupils for a day, to take part in Leiths lessons, lacrosse skills lessons, as well as supporting their daughters in the triathlon. Online, the Heathfield community joined an interesting day of art, talk shows, discussion of teenage issues and pupil performances. The hymns sung during our finale, our special Songs of Praise, were chosen by the Heathfield community and watched by parents and Old Girls.
The total raised for the Festival weekend now stands at £48,623.
