The Junior School put on a magnificent Cake Sale with all contributions donated to their international charity, Mary’s Meals. The girls are raising money for the lunches at Bondo School in southern Malawi. The aim is to feed all 677 students of Bondo School for an entire year. The fundraiser saw a huge array of every type of cake, cookie and brownie which even Mary Berry would have been wowed by. With some help from their parents and family at home, the girls baked hundreds of delicious cakes and raised a total of £739.86!
