On Friday 6th March during lunchtime, Year 6 students took part in a sponsored run in the Sports Hall to raise money for the charity A21, which works to combat human trafficking and support vulnerable people around the world.
Students challenged themselves to run as many laps as possible within the time, showing impressive determination and resilience. The Sports Hall was full of energy as students encouraged one another and pushed themselves to keep going.
The event was not only about fundraising. As part of our Migration unit, it also encouraged students to reflect on the journeys many migrants face. By giving up their lunchtime play and persevering through the challenge, students experienced a small glimpse of the effort, determination and hardship that can be part of long journeys in search of safety and opportunity.
We are incredibly proud of the effort, teamwork and generosity shown by Year 6. Thank you to everyone who supported the event and helped raise funds for A21 and its important work. In total we raised 278,210 Thai baht.
