11 Exeter Raise £715 for MIND Charity

We are delighted to share the fantastic achievement of 11 Exeter, who organised a remarkable charity fundraiser last year in support of MIND, the mental health charity.

Over the course of a month, the pupils set themselves the challenge of collectively running, walking and cycling a total of 1,000km. Through their determination, teamwork and commitment, they not only reached their goal but also managed to raise an incredible £715 for such an important cause.

This achievement reflects the values of compassion, resilience and community spirit that we are so proud to see in our pupils. Supporting MIND, a charity that works tirelessly to ensure no one faces a mental health problem alone, makes their efforts all the more meaningful.

We would also like to thank Ms Sharp, their form tutor, for empowering and supporting the pupils throughout this challenge. Her encouragement played a vital role in helping them to achieve such success.

Charities Week 2025

The halls of St Clement Danes School have been buzzing with holiday cheer this week as the annual Charities Week is officially in full swing. As the Autumn Term draws to a close, pupils and staff have united to raise vital funds for three incredible causes: Endometriosis UK, Spread a Smile, and Herts Young Homeless. The school is alive with the spirit of giving, driven by a jam packed ‘Advent’ schedule designed to get everyone involved in the fundraising efforts. This year’s itinerary has been filled with exciting activities, ranging from pupil led lessons and a "Mystery Bucket" challenge to the competitive excitement of the "Elf Auction" and various competitions. Pupils have also enjoyed the classic "Sponge the Teacher" event and a visit to Santa’s Grotto, ensuring the festive atmosphere is matched only by the community’s generosity. Beyond the classroom activities, pupils have been sharing the festive spirit with the wider community. On 18th December, the SCD Senior Choir paid a special visit to Chorleywood Manor Care Home. The residents were treated to a beautiful selection of Christmas carols, featuring performances by members of the Chamber Choir, Evensong Choir, and the Barbershop Choir. Year 12 pupils Immy and Chrissie noted that "it was a very joyful occasion and it was lovely to see the residents joining in and looking so happy." The success of such a busy week relies heavily on pupil leadership, and the school extends a massive vote of thanks to Year 13 for their incredible hard work and dedication. Their enthusiasm have been the driving force behind this week's fundraising efforts. The week is set to conclude on Friday with the Grand Finale: the highly anticipated Sixth Form Revue, promising a spectacular end to a week of community, charity and celebration.
