Blue House Community Day

On Friday 10th October, Blue House came together for an amazing Community Day to raise money for their chosen house charity — Sandown and Shanklin Independent Lifeboat. Nearly 500 students and staff completed a mini marathon course featuring our very own ‘London Landmarks’ including a homemade Tower Bridge, the Cutty Sark, Buckingham Palace and The Mall! Students brought in £1 to wear mufti and the Blue House Council sold 400 bags of pick ’n’ mix, all to support this local cause.

The day finished with the Blue House Quiz, where over 30 teams of students and staff battled it out to become quiz champions! Prizes were kindly donated by local businesses including Love Running, The Little Isle of Wight Company, Sandown Soccer, Morrisons, McDonalds, Wildheart Animal Sanctuary and Isle of Wight Steam Railway.

Mr Bricknell, Head of Blue House organised the day with students from The Blue House Council. Having completed the London Marathon himself in 2021, he wanted to inspire students to challenge themselves and see how their efforts can make a real difference to a valuable charity in the local community.
