Charity Fundraising Round Up

Staff and Students at Handsworth Grammar School successfully did their bit for Sport Relief last week. The global amount raised was over £1,650 on the day thus making the amount we have raised for various good causes this term £3,200. This means that the Staff and Students at HGS have raised over £9,200 to date for a variety of good causes such as Sport Relief, Children in Need, Birmingham Children’s Hospital and Birmingham Shelter this academic year alone. On Friday we saw a number of sporting challenges take place such as a Five a Side Football tournament, a Dodge Ball tournament, Netball tournament and a variation on Iron Man with a press up tournament. The “Press up Kings” were Rajan Parekh and Malik Hussein who won through the heats to the finals with an impressive 48 press ups and 64 press ups in a minute respectively. Well done to everyone involved for making it such a successful day.
