Thank you for viewing the The Huggett Family (Debbie, Dave, Ellie & Max) Just Giving Page for our 3 Peaks Challenge in June 2015.

Teachers, students, families and friends of Vyners School are looking to take on the 3 Peaks Challenge over the weekend of 27th to 29th June 2015 to raise funds for various school projects (supported by the PTA, Friends Of Vyners) and also Asthma UK.

Sadly, a family has recently lost their oldest son to an acute asthma attack while he was away at University. His younger brother attends Vyners School. Since this happened, we have found out that 3 people a day die of asthma and research is funded by above charity. It does not get the support as much as some of the other national charities. In addition, another ex-Vyners student lost her life to Asthma just before Christmas so supporting this charity has been fully endorsed by all those connected to the school.

Our own daughter Ellie also suffers from Asthma and it can be a very frightening experience when she has an attack, so we are delighted to be raising money for two causes that are both very important to our family.

We are splitting funds raised between The Friends Of Vyners School and Asthma UK .  The focus of the school fundraising effort this year is to purchase 50 new Chromebooks for students to use in lessons for collaborative and independent research tasks. These Chromebooks power up in less than eight seconds as opposed to the ageing laptops that can take up to ten minutes and therefore lesson time is used much more effectively. They also provide an excellent platform for Google Classroom which is a big push for the school this year. We are also aiming to replace computers in Art, Music and Technology classrooms and are currently exploring Apple Macs alongside PCs.

Anyone can join us on the challenge which could either be a 24 hour 3 Peaks walk, or something more gentle over the 3 days. We will be starting at Ben Nevis, moving straight on to Scafell Pike and finishing at Snowdon. To find out more visit the school website or e-mail us on 3Peaks@vyners.hillingdon.sch.uk
