were able to organise
two Quiz and Pudding
nights which
always prove popular. We were only able to hold a bar at one
ofthe events and we were unable to host our annual Sports

The uniform shop continues to provide an excellent service to

the year. This is staffed entirely
by
volunteers
and requires
significant

which have enabled
us to support clubs and educational
