Children in Need at CGS

Postby WC1 » Thu Nov 16, 2006 6:14 pm

A massive WELL DONE and a huge THANK YOU to the staff and pupils of Campbeltown Grammar School who had their Children in Need Day today and raised an incredible £7,236 for this deserving cause. We thought they'd be pushed to beat last year's £5,300 but they have excelled themselves once more. Watch out for some of the prefects who'll be in the BBC's Glasgow studios for the early part of Friday's telethon.

I nodded off during the news and now the arm of the settee is greener than the hair. Still, it contributed to the total.

Well done.

Cant believe you managed to raise that amount!

Yup, just saw Alex (he's proud of that name) with half the crew. 8) The rest were at the next table.
Just had a phone call - they're off for food now. It's hungry work raising money :lol:

Heard Castlehill mentioned too. There's been a lot of money raised in Campbeltown 8)
