Giving and Receiving

On Tuesday 3 February, St Christopher’s Sixth Form students, Jude Al Mutawa, and Head Girl, Hana Nasif, presented a cheque for BD650 to representatives of the Bahrain Sickle Cell Disease Society.

Following the presentation of the cheque, Mr Zakaryia Al Khadem, Chairman and Dr Jaffa Tooq made a presentation to an audience of 300 Year 11, Year 12 and Year 13 students about the nature of the condition to raise awareness. Mr Mahmood Moosa was also in attendance. The money was raised through the organisation of a Sixth Form Charity Football Tournament and a Year 10 Car Boot Sale in November. Many thanks for everyone’s assistance with the fund-raising activities.
