Our Lenten fundraising is gathering wonderful momentum here at Carmel College! We’re delighted to share that we have now raised an impressive £1007 for the St Augustine’s Conference of the St Vincent de Paul Society — and that total is from just 13 forms so far. With many more still to contribute, we’re excited to see this figure continue to grow.

A Fantastic Friday of Fundraising

Last Friday brought an incredible buzz across the college as students and staff threw themselves into a range of fun activities:

  • A visit from the Easter Bunny, who delivered ice pops — and will be hopping back next week!
  • A popular Easter Egg tombola that had queues of eager participants.
  • A “Guess the Number of Mini Eggs” competition, which kept everyone guessing throughout the day.

A huge congratulations to Will Dawson, who guessed the exact number — 232 mini eggs! 

Making a Difference Together

It has been inspiring to see so many students getting involved, organising events, and supporting one another with such enthusiasm. Their efforts are making a meaningful difference to the work of the SVP in our local community.

We can’t wait to share the next update as our total continues to rise in the days ahead!
