The school was full to capacity with over 100 guests for the annual Friends of The Abbey bingo night. The atmosphere was fantastic and everyone enjoyed 6 games of bingo called by Mr Perry in his usual inimitable style (not to mention his assortment of hats for the occasion!). There were a couple of tables of ex-students as well as students from all years and their families.At the end of the evening, it was time for Mr Jackson to announce the lucky winners of around 30 grand draw prizes. Thank you to everyone who bought tickets – all the winners have been notified including those who weren’t there on the night. Altogether the bingo, grand draw and silent auction raised:

£1,680 which will all be donated to the school for the students

Thank you to all the local businesses, shops & venues, as well as the parents/carers, who donated prizes and to the Friends’ committee members, staff & other helpers
