In
photos: Highbridge school's Rag Week fun raises thousands
 Fun-loving
students from Highbridge's King Alfred School hit the streets
of Burnham-On-Sea, Highbridge and Bridgwater on Friday (December
11th) when their Rag Week fundraising came to an end with a traditional
walk through the local towns.
Thousands
of pounds is expected to have been raised for three good causes
chosen by the sixth form students - Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance,
BIBIC and Guide Dogs for the Blind.
Students
went to considerable lengths to choose their fancy dress costumes
this year and members of the public will have seen the two remaining
Beatles, four Ghostbusters, a giant pink ape, a huge inflatable
banana, Superman and three Ninja turtles wandering local streets!
Jonathan
Gaskell, Head of Sixth Form, told Burnham-On-Sea.com: "Events
during the week also included a 'crossbar challenge', a rap concert
at the BAY Centre and an old favourite, 'gunge the teacher'."
