Chairman's Trophy won by Island School fundraisers


In November we celebrated the continued success of our Sedan Chair race team. Behind the scenes however worked a dedicated small group of year 12 students and their aim was to win the “Best School Fund Raising” award. In Pacific Place One on the 14th March they were awarded the “Chairman’s Trophy”. Different team: same result! Once again we became the most successful fund raising school for the event that collectively raises over 3.5 million dollars for local charities. Emeline SANDT, helped by Saniya MEHRA and Tarini MEHROTRA worked hard throughout the first term selling pizzas and plastic strap sports watches (amongst other things!) to raise $30,000. Well done, an excellent CAS effort!
