To all you lovely people who contributed towards the Spring Quiz …

 

A huge thank you for helping fundraise for St. George’s Church, Thriplow. An incredible 72 households took part!

 

You have raised an amazing £1,058.00 - which increases to £1,302.50 when we include the Gift Aid you are allowing us to claim. We really do appreciate your generosity and enthusiasm. Very many thanks to you all.

 

And now for the PRIZES!

 

1) The ‘Hamper’ of goodies:

 

Pip and Sean McGarry won the random draw from all the participating households - regardless of whether they returned a Spring Quiz questionnaire or not!

 

2) The highest achieving scores:

 

We had 5 questionnaires all achieving an equal highest score: 47 points out of a potential 49 points.

 

The 5 were from:

 

Carol and John Deed

Margaret and Kit Jackson

Pauline, Andy and James Walker

Rebecca Rushbrook and family

Sarah Nolasco and family

 

So Richard and I have had to select from these 5 based on the tie breaker - wonderful drawings, limericks, poems were created by so many of you.

 

It was certainly a very tricky decision! So much so that we now have 2 prizes to award (it was too difficult to select just one!)

 

And the two prizes go to……

 

Rebecca Rushbrook and family - with a picture by Dyan aged 6

Sarah Nolasco and family - with a picture and words by Sarah

 

3) The child/youngsters prize…..

 

All the entries were delightful - and again decision making was so tricky we are awarding three prizes rather than just one!

 

The three prizes go to….

Esme Harris

Amelia Luckhurst

Leo Stronach

 

4) And we have an additional prize prompted by the strong creative writing of The Elgars (who didn’t quite get the highest score BUT we loved their poem and think you will too -  see below):

 

We would be grateful if Pip and Sean McGarry, Rebecca Rushbrook, Sarah Nolasco, Esme Harris, Amelia Buckhurst, Leo Stronnac and The Elgars could pop round to us at The Old Bakery, 8 The Green and collect their prizes asap please!

 

Very many thanks again.

 

We do hope you enjoyed The Spring Quiz.

 

With best wishes
