EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming photo print, we see the incredible dedication and enthusiasm of hundreds of Rawthorpe High School pupils as they participated in a sponsored read-a-thon. These young minds came together to support a noble cause, raising an impressive £363 for the Sir Malcolm Sergeant Cancer Fund for Children. The event was a resounding success, involving lower school pupils who went above and beyond by devouring more than five books in just one week. Their commitment to reading extended beyond English lessons; they utilized their lunch breaks and spare time to immerse themselves in the world of literature. Captured alongside these avid readers is Mrs Debbie Woodbridge, an inspiring English teacher who played a pivotal role in organizing and encouraging her students throughout this endeavor. Her presence symbolizes the guidance and mentorship that nurtures such philanthropic initiatives within educational institutions. This snapshot from February 11th, 1991 takes us back to the nostalgic era of the 1990s when children were encouraged to explore their imaginations through books rather than screens. It serves as a reminder that even at a young age, individuals can make a significant impact on society by coming together for causes close to their hearts. This photograph is not only a testament to the power of education but also showcases how compassion and determination can unite communities towards making positive changes in our world.
