Year 7 pupils were invited to the WE Day celebratory concert at Wembley Arena on Wednesday 7th March as a reward for their outstanding fundraising efforts for the international charity WE. WE was created by children, for children, to fight the root causes of poverty through projects at home and abroad.

Since September, the pupils have led a number of initiatives for the WE movement in school. In the last two terms the children held food drives for WE Scare Hunger, donating to a local foodbank in Merstham and the charity Loveworks; organising book collections and reading buddy mentoring for WE Read Together; an anti-cyber bullying campaign in WE Rise Above; a stall at the school Christmas fair selling WE Are Rafiki bracelets for women in Kenya; designed an eco-garden to campaign for sustainability in WE Take Charge and collaborated with the Christian organisation SparkFish to deliver a think space in school to spread kindness and compassion through the WE Are Silent campaign.

Through their passion and resilience the pupils have made a genuine difference to the lives of others in their school, local and global communities and surpassed the expectations of the WE organisation, already ranking as one of the top performing schools in the UK for WE activities!
