Something to Shout About
On Wednesday Mr Bowley met with the newly appointed Community Champions for the first time this academic year. After reaching a record setting £10,000 in three years at the end of last academic year, the sights are set on achieving something truly amazing this year. Not only is charity important, but with the global and national picture showing fractured communities Etone College is dedicated to supporting all and bringing people together. With the underlying Etone Values this is something we believe passionately in.
To mark this the plans for the year are truly special. With the upcoming Macmillan the first focus as we look to build on our previous success and potentially crown a new Bake-Off champion. However, in February we are excited ot be hosting residents from local care homes for our Partnership Pancakes as we celebrate our 50th birthday.
Once pupils had discussed the logistics of the year, it was time for them to receive their badges. A little-known fact is that the large size of the Community Champions badge stems form the fact that our champions have the biggest hearts around. Or at least, that’s what Mr Bowley says. Well done to all of our new and existing champions as we look forward to the year ahead.
