Sixth Form raise £1,000+ for Cancer Research
Students in the Sixth Form at Colfox Academy have raised funds for Cancer Research during another successful ‘RAG’ week at the end of term.
Raising over £1000, Sixth Form Head Students Oliver and Toby said, “It was hard work organising all the fundraising activities for RAG week, but it was so worth it in the end!”
Adam Teasdale, Head of the Sixth Form at Colfox said, “We have a RAG week every year and have donated to a range of charities historically. This year, students wanted to raise funds for a large national charity after donating to local charities last year. Many students lives are touched by cancer and we all felt this was the right charity this year.”
Events organised included an ‘Escape Room’ where students needed to use problem-solving skills; a Christmas-themed ‘Bake Off Challenge’ and the perennial candy cane deliveries and RAG magazine.
