Welcome Walk - Jennifer Spence


Last Tuesday the 8th September, the whole school took part in another Welcome Walk – Return to the Park to raise funds for Welcome Primary. The day started with all of the citizenship class collecting sponsorship money from form classes and working together to count it all while trying not to lose any! We then spent one period painting each other’s faces with South African flags and anything that related to the day.

 

We then had to get the park ready for everyone walking in the afternoon. Luckily the rain was holding off and so three golf buggies were able to shoot around the park putting up signs and directions for the walkers. Katie and I got a shot on the back of Mr Curries buggy which was a lot of fun. We then went to our stations around the park ready for the walk to start.

 

Once the walk started we could hear the bagpipes from the start line and were ready to cheer on the walkers. I was at a station with Katie and Craig, Craig brought a blow horn with him and so we were able to blow the horn when people passed with good outfits like minions or a hot dog and to anyone that had great enthusiasm. Everyone who took part in the day, both teachers and pupils had a great time and we raised a lot of money for Welcome Primary.
