'Jeans for Genes'

Well done to everyone who got involved and donated during our 'Jeans for Genes' charity event last week. Pupils opted to substitute their school trousers or skirt in favour of their favourite denim.

One in 25 young people will be affected by a genetic condition. That's one child per form class. It means that we are likely in our lives to know someone who is affected and certainly many of our budding scientists, geneticists, specialist nurses and clinicians may be involved in treating affected individuals in the future.

The school raised a fantastic £865 for this worthy cause.
