FUNDRAISIN­G FOR ST

This summer Mr Russell, PE and Personal Support teacher, is taking on the challenge of a five day trek in Iceland in order to raise vital funds for St. Andrew’s Hospice in Lanarkshir­e.

The trek will involve some eight and nine hour days climbing through lava fields, river crossings and some wading through ice cold streams.

Three nights will be spent camping under canvas.

All monies raised will be put to the best possible use for the care and comfort of Hospice patients and their families.

For details on how you can help support Mr Russell, go to www. justgiving.com/fundraisin­g/ Graeme-Russell4 or see the school website.
