St Gregory’s Catholic High School has raised an impressive £3,400 for two important causes in recent weeks: World Mental Health Day and Breast Cancer Awareness.

 

To mark World Mental Health Day, students showed their support by wearing a touch of yellow to symbolise unity and awareness of the cause. They also raised funds through a popular cake and sweet-treat sale during breaktimes that St. Gregory’s Mental Health Ambassadors arranged.

 

The school community came together for Breast Cancer Awareness, contributing through a variety of activities. students donated for a pink themed non-uniform day, purchased badges and bracelets, baked or bought cakes for the charity sale, and took part in a raffle featuring four sweet-treat hampers as prizes.

 

Reflecting on the students’ efforts, Mrs Whitlow, St Gregory’s chaplain, said: “The kindness our students have shown is a powerful reflection of our Catholic values. Their support for both World Mental Health Day and Breast Cancer Awareness demonstrates a heartfelt commitment to caring for those in need. I am incredibly proud of their spirit and generosity.”
