Staines Prep Raising Money for Sports Relief

Over 350 children from Staines Prep took part in a sponsored ‘Exercise to Music’ event on Friday 5 March, to help raise funds for Sport Relief 2010.

In the past, each House at Staines Prep has supported its own local charity through various fundraising activities. However, this year for the first time all four Houses came together in aid of the UK charity.

Pupils swapped formal shirts and ties for comfy sports gear, cranked up the music and got moving and grooving to a series of three aerobic routines. Both the tennis court and the main playground had to be used to accommodate everyone.

Deputy Head Mr. Amiss said: “We are extremely proud of all the children, not only did they raise funds which will help to change the lives of those less fortunate, but they are also helping to support the national drive for health and fitness in young people.”
