Priory House raised over £100 for charity by selling sweets and candy canes...
This year Priory had a sweet stall at the School Christmas Fair where we sold bags of sweets for 50p. We actually managed to sell 80 bags of sweets in 42 minutes and then we ran out of stock, so next year the girls have worked out they need triple the quantity of sweets!
We also sold Candy Canes in Houses encouraging pupils to send them to their friends. The cards with their messages were put in a special box in the Dining Hall then they were collected and decorated by the Priory girls and distributed in Houses. Pupils do love receiving them, and we sold very nearly 100 of these.
After deducting expenses we were delighted that we have raised £105 for the Growing Space Charity.
