St John's Hospice Donation - LGGS Reindeer Rush December 2020

26th Mar 2021

St John's Hospice Donation - LGGS Reindeer Rush December 2020

Local schools helped raise an amazing £15000 for St John’s Hospice by taking part in an Elf Fun Run, in the lead up to Christmas 2019. LGGS students and families proudly contributed £400 to this impressive total. Twelve months later, on Saturday 19th December 2020, LGGS families once again donned their trainers, aiming to improve on this 2019 total. They set off on a 'virtual' family Reindeer Rush - a sponsored run, walk or jog which was to be any distance and take place at any location. LGGS had a little over 180 people sign up to take part in the event and eventually collected over 190 sponsors who collectively raised a whopping total of £2,093. All the money raised has now been donated to St.John’s Hospice, a local charity which provides free palliative care to patients with life shortening conditions. Thank you everyone. This total will make a big difference to St John's, especially at a time when it has been increasingly difficult for them to raise funds. Below: Pictures of pupils, friends and families wearing their Reindeer Rush fun run antlers on Reindeer Rush Fun Run day.

Christmas Jumper Day on Friday 11th December ... join in the fun and support good causes

Just a quick reminder about our Christmas jumper, non-uniform fundraiser this Friday, 11th December. Donations should be made through ParentPay and the money raised will go to 'Save the Children' and 'EducAid', a Sierra Leone charity LGGS works with. The following link will take you to Parentpay: ParentPay On the day students do not have to wear a Christmas jumper if they don’t have one, instead they can wear Christmas colours so green, red etc or something with a sparkle! The usual non-uniform guidelines apply but students will need to keep warm in school. I am sure we will have a really good day. Thank you for your support.
