Back to previous February Press Release

Pupils, staff and parents at Bristol Cathedral School have all combined to raise around £2,100 for tsunami relief.

Over the last three weeks, sixth-formers at the independent school have taken the lead in organising and co-ordinating a range of fund-raising activities.

Events held included:

  • Non-uniform day for the whole school - raising £800
  • PTA Quiz Night – raised more than £300
  • Cake sale – raised £340, outstripping all previous cake sales held at the school
  • Lunchtime – raised £85
  • A raffle and auction organised by sixth-formers brought in around £500.

The school’s new Head, Mrs Anne Davey, said: “ Bristol Cathedral School has a long tradition of raising money for charity, but the speed and determination with which pupils have raised funds for the tsunami appeal has been quite unprecedented.

“As a faith-based school, we have always encouraged our pupils to play their part in making the world a better place, so it is heartening to see that principle in action. I would like to congratulate everyone who has contributed, including our Head of Sixth Form, Simon I’Anson."
