She said they also host a Summer Prom for the leaving Year 11s every summer.
Nicki chairs the school’s volunteer student committee and they raised over £10,000 at the last Prom.
“So far this year the committee has organised Bake Sales, washing staff cars at lunchtimes, a staff sumo wrestling competition and a book stall at Lubenham Scarecrow Weekend.
“We’re also holding a penalty shoot-out against staff this Friday lunchtime so it’s been absolutely non-stop,” said Nicki.
