CHILDREN IN NEED 2019
For children in need 2019, The Wilnecote School organised two charitable events and a
non-school uniform day to raise money for this excellent cause. This included an ‘I’m
a teacher get me out of here; where teachers volunteered to eat gross dishes while
students cheered them on and laughed at their comical reactions. The highlights of the event
included Mrs Ager turning a little green and holding back the food she had just ingested! A
big shout out must go to Mr Faulds who has a stomach of steel. This was clearly proven on
the final challenge when all teachers were handed a splendid concoction of liquid and he
was the only teacher to down the whole thing!!!
The day before the I’m a teacher challenge, there was a ‘Teacher Talent Show’ where
teachers performed their chosen talents (however eccentric they may be). Within the show,
students were entertained by excellent singing, and variation of instruments from amazing
guitar playing to a fantastic rendition of the flute and a hilarious performance from both Miss
Ager in her flamingo costume. Students will never be able to get the image out of their head
of Mr Adams, Mr Stevenson and Mr Booton singing You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling to Mr
Simpson-who looked way too comfortable dressed as a woman.
Mr Adams, Deputy Headteacher, commented “It was great to see the students and staff
getting so involved in Children in Need. It is an event in the school calendar that I look
forward to every year. The total raised is a great achievement and I would like to thank the
students, staff and parents for supporting this event”
In total, as a school we raised, £1388.44. After a week of entertainment, fun and laughter,
we are delighted with this result and thank the junior leadership team and all staff for their
contribution towards a fun, light hearted day of fundraising.
