Sponsored Silence Will Benefit Disadvantaged Children

Taking part in a sponsored silence, Year 7 pupils at Bolton School Girls’ Division raised an impressive £1,370 for the Mission Christmas Cash for Kids campaign. The annual fundraiser, organised by Hits Radio and Greatest Hits UK Radio stations, benefits disadvantaged children in the Greater Manchester region. 

Spending an entire day in silence – much to the delight of the teaching staff – the girls raised money and then spent it on a trolley dash at Smyths toy store at Middlebrook. The pupils’ purchases were then donated to the campaign, which, in turn, will distribute to local families.
