Readathon Record

Brough Girling, founder of Readathon, visited the Junior School on Monday 6 December to thank the children for their fundraising efforts and donating £8,667.53 to the charity; the biggest single donation by any junior school since the start of the campaign in 1984. Mr Girling provided the children with some of his much-treasured anecdotes about his personal friend, Roald Dahl; creating a special and topical connection with one of the nation’s favourite children’s authors.
