Making sunflowers
Great Bedwyn’s resident artist, June Pearson, and her grandson Tom (Year 6) organised and made sunflowers with all pupils in the school which they have sold for a minimum donation of 50p. Their idea grew wings and was shared with MAT and cluster schools. The sale was publicised on social media and radio and was supported by the wider community and the local MP Danny Kreuger, who wore a Bedwyn sunflower to Prime Ministers Question time. All donations received have been given to the Red Cross with the overall total to date at Great Bedwyn CE school standing at £1200.
