🌈 Let’s Go Bright for Rupert! 🌈

Rupert is 8 months old and lives in our community with his family. He is bravely living with an ultra rare neurological condition called Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood (AHC).

✨To show our support, children and staff are invited to come to school in their brightest, most colourful clothes!
We kindly suggest a minimum donation of £2 for Rupert’s Rainbow .

🧁 We’ll also be holding an after school bake sale, any donations of cakes, biscuit and other goodies will be very much appreciated.

🪣 We’ll be on the yard in the morning collecting cash and card donations, and again at the bake sale.

🔗 You can also donate via Just Giving and read Rupert’s story here:

Thank you for helping us raise as much money as possible for this very worthy cause!
