Dashed good charity effort

CHRIST the King Catholic High School has hosted its second annual Santa Dash. Sports leaders from the secondary school helped to organise the fundraiser which featured 200 pupils – including some of its many feeder primary schools, Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Primary School, St Patricks Catholic Primary School, and Kew Woods Primary School – complete a 1km run in some pretty challenging weather conditions.

In total, the amount raised from this event was £200.75 and all proceeds go to Queenscourt Hospice to support its work for those who suffer from serious illness.

A special guest appearance was made by Queenie, the Queenscourt mascot, who spent time having photos taken with the children and cheering them on as they completed the course.
