added to them such as stuck on shells, which really emphasised the under the water theme. Once this faded out, all of the wonderful models made a final entrance down the catwalk, with the audience cheering and congratulating everyone involved. The fashion show was not just about the clothes or the model, but the meaning behind all of this pro-duduction, was to raise money for the mountain Trust charity. The school have a close connection with this charity, which raises money for under privi-leged people in Nepal. To raise money, both years worked towards building up the money to donate, by hosting a cake sale and a ‘walk through’ display-ing the models with some of the outfits for the fashion show. We sold tickets through doing this, al-lowing us to take in more money. On the fashion

show night we decided to host a raffle, selling a variety of goods for the audience to buy tick-ets then have a chance of winning something special. The gifts we provided ranged from do-nated items from parents of children at Bullers Wood, shops such as M&S donated gift vouch-ers, and expensive bags were up for grabs. Each and every bit of the money we raised went to the Mountain Trust charity. An audience member described the show as ‘A truly spectacular fashion show, one of the best I’ve ever seen. It really demonstrates how bril-liant Bullers Wood is as a school!’ The students and teachers put in so much hard work; it was great that it all paid off in the end.
