Children in Need

Greendown School are invited to help raise money for BBC's Children in Need. Friday 14th November students can wear non-school uniform for a donation of £1. The money will be collected during tutor time on Friday morning.

BBC's Children in Need's mission is to change the lives of disadvantaged children and young people in the UK.

Last year in 2007 the BBC's Children in Need Appeal raised over £37 million. Every penny donated to the charity, a penny will go towards projects helping disadvantaged children in the UK. Greedown School was able to make this promise because the charity uses its investment income to cover all operational costs. Thanks to the public donations and amazing efforts of fundraisers, schools, businesses and corporate partners were able to provide support to thousands of youngsters aged 18 and under.
