Collecting in Sponsorship

• Readathon finishes on Friday 28th June.• As soon as Readathon has finished you can

start collecting in your sponsorship money.• Miss Roe will come round form rooms each

day to collect sponsorship money.• You must hand in your sponsorship card with

your money. (This is so Gift Aid can be claimed by Readathon.)

Sponsorship Target

• If everyone (including form teachers) aimed to raise at least £5 in sponsorship, we would raise £740 as a year group.

• This would be great for the charities that Readathon supports:– CLIC Sargent– Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity
