Battle Abbey prep school success for Child's Voice Appeal
Pupils at the school were kept busy with a number of fundraising activities such as Buddy's Art Party and Buddy's Spelling Sprint, which involved earning points for the number of words correctly spelled, then finding sponsors to reward them for the number of points they scored.
This is a small school with just 75 pupils but they still managed to raise 1,828.16.

In a 'Thank you' assembly to the children, NSPCC Schools' Organiser for West Kent and East Sussex John Whatley told the children: "I am so proud of what you have done, and you should be proud of yourselves as well. The money you have raised will help many unhappy children."
The children were told that their money would go towards vital services the society provides both nationally and locally.
