It’s that time of year again and Bosworth Academy students have been hard at work fundraising for this years Red Nose Day!

Red Nose Day brings the entire nation together to have fun, raise cash and change lives. Since its inception in 1985 Comic Relief has raised over £800 million for projects in the UK and Internationally and teachers and students at the Academy have clearly enjoyed taking part.

Fundraising events took place with individuals, tutor groups and teams ranging from a sponsored silence to cake sales and Basketball. The Harlem Share, non-dress code and music concert ensured a large number of the Academy community contributed to the fund raising effort.
