Mr Lynch Does the Ice Bucket Challenge

23 May 25

Thank you to everyone who generously donated to our Ice Bucket Challenge to support 4Youth (SouthWest) and participated in our other fundraising activities throughout Mental Health Awareness Week. Together, we raised over £700 for mental health services for young people. As we promised, we hit our fundraising target, so Mr Lynch took on the Ice Bucket Challenge himself...with the help of some students, staff and the Dorset & Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service! Thank you to everyone who came out to cheer Mr Lynch on during our lunch break on Thursday, as well as to the DWFRS for the use of their fire hose to make sure that he got a proper soaking! We'd like to extend a HUGE thank you to Mr Lynch for being such a good sport!

Sheldon gave me confidence in my abilities and supported my ambitions. Going to a state school has many benefits over private in terms of real-world experience and being friends with a varied group of students. This has helped me in my life since school.
