Yellow House Walk

Over 200 pupils took part in Yellow House Walk on Friday 30th June 2023.  The event was part of Yellow House Community Day to raise money for Yellow House’s chosen charity, Mountbatten. It is one of the longest running traditions of the school, each year run in support of Yellow House charity The Mountbatten Hospice.  

The first Yellow House Walk took place over 30 years ago. Staged in memory of a well-loved, courageous Yellow House pupil Ian White, who very sadly passed away from cancer at the age of 15.

206 pupils set off from Cowes and walked 14 miles to Sandown along the cycle path. 23 pupils joined them walking 6 miles from Merstone to Sandown. Pupils and staff on the walk had a fantastic time and were excellent ambassadors for the school. Thank you to all members of the community who supported the event and sponsored pupils.

It was a fabulous day and over £6000 was raised! Well done to all of our amazing walkers - pupils and staff. A huge thank you to those who gave up their time to make the event such a success and to raise money for such important charities.
