March
Quiz night brainiacs
We are delighted to share that thanks to the generous support from the John Ball brains and boffins, we raised £955 for the school at quiz night. A big thanks to Mr Lewins and Mr Butler and to the volunteers for making the event possible.
Pizza night - dough dreaming
A firm favourite for children and carers alike, pizza night proved to be another success. We raised £333…Thanks to Helena for her efforts.
Going, going, gone
The Friends of John Ball wish to thank the community and local businesses for their support of our Spring Auction, which raised £933 for the school. A special word of gratitude to Radiant Massage Therapy, The Cheese Board, The Babka Boys, Paul Rhodes Bakery, Tidylicious, and parents for their generous donations!
April
The hunt is on
The annual Hampton's Easter trail raised a magnificent £500 for the school.
Sweet success
Despite the wind, the April cake sale raised a grand total of £604.29. Once again, thank you volunteers for your magnificent efforts.
On your bike
The London to Amsterdam sponsored ride closed out our April events. We'll share the details of the fundraising amount raised in due course, but thanks to the generosity of our riders and supporters, it is set to be a phenomenal amount in excess of £6,000!
