Wow, what an amazing event last Saturday’s Macmillan Fun Morning turned out to be! A huge heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed to its success in so many ways. The Prep Guild added a new twist to the classic coffee morning, with an array of fete-style games for the boys and their families to enjoy. The Café Bar hosted the most delicious selection of cakes imaginable and there was an enticing display of raffle prizes to be won. Thank you so much to everyone who so kindly donated cakes and prizes. Particularly impressive were the cakes baked by the boys themselves for the ‘Bake Off’ competition; Show Stoppers and Family Favourites. Well done and thank you, boys!
Outside in the sunshine, the sounds of children laughing and cheering on their friends were so good to hear. The Queen’s Lawn was the perfect setting for everything from shuffleboard to name the teddy, hoop the bottle and bean bag toss, to name but a few. However, the real stars of the show were the Prep School teachers, who braved the boys throwing (pelting!) wet sponges at them! All in all, it turned out to be the most wonderful morning; our fantastic community coming together and enjoying some good old-fashioned fun for a great cause.
Thank you so much to everyone who supported this first Prep Guild event of the year, with a total of £2,500 raised for Macmillan Cancer Support.
