Welcome Walk - Cara Steedman


On Tuesday the 8th of September we done our second Welcome Walk at Balwearie High School around the local park (Beveridge Park) to raise money for Welcome school. A lot of people dressed up in fancy dress and really enjoyed doing the walk and activities before/after the walk.

 

We had been planning the walk for around 3 weeks before it. So we planned to do fancy dress all over the school and we planned and tried out the walk route. Not a lot of people dressed up but from the people that did dress up they were really good. My 4 friends and I dressed up in a Where’s Wally outfit. Other costumes that I saw were Minions, a Gorilla, Hula Girls, Animals, Batgirl and most people were in fancy onesies. At our station we played out music so that the people walking past could have a bit more fun by dancing, which we were all doing. We also had the photographer at our station with us so a lot of photos were taken of all the pupils enjoying their selves.

 

In the morning we sat in the library counting all the money which was roughly around £11,000. After this we went on the golf buggies setting out all the chairs and sticking the posters down on the seats to show people where to walk. The golf buggies were very fun to stand on the back off. Mr Curry let us stand on the back while he went really fast around the park up and down the hills.
