A Message to St Bartholomew's from Bethany Kids' CEO
We held a fantastic fundraising fun day on 12th September where children had a very enjoyable day raising money for Bethany Kids. The CEO, Mr Lublink, joined us for the day. We raised over £2000!
Our Overseas Charity, Bethany Kids
We reached out to our parents and asked them if they were associated with any international charity that would benefit from our help and a parent suggested Bethany Kids. We looked into it and it is a charity that completely reflects the values and ethos we hold here at St Bartholomew's School. The charity does amazing work to train doctors to work with children in areas in Africa where there is little access to healthcare. We are so excited to have begun working with this fantastic charity and cannot wait to get to know the children in Joytown Primary School in Nairobi.
We were awarded this plaque from the Royal British Legion for outstanding fundraising
