The girls of Redland High Junior School have combined their love of reading with their fantastic fundraising skills this term to raise money for the Nkomazi Community Library Project.  Back in September, we invited the girls to raise funds to help us build our community library in Nkomazi, South Africa.  Always keen to rise to a challenge, the girls got to work!

The fundraising was kicked off with ‘Bring a Book and a Pound’ week which resulted in generous donations of money and pre-loved books.  The girls then spent half term reading books, and being sponsored for it!  And finally, the whole school contributed to a wonderful poetry book called ‘The Gift’, which was sold to raise further funds.

All of this hard work has paid off with a magnificent £1344.05 raised in total!  This is a truly fantastic achievement.  Well done girls!
