THE quiz for enthusiasts
Our Harpenden Quiz of Quizzes, an ever-popular event staged in St George’s School hall, on a Friday evening in March, regularly attracts up to 30 teams of six people.
As well as giving some 200 quiz enthusiasts an entertaining evening it allows us, through the bar and a raffle, to raise funds for charity. Since the first Quiz of Quizzes was staged in 1996 more than £60,000 has been raised.
‘Something the school cannot teach them’
Finding a business idea and pitching it to three successful business people was the challenge set to Year 6 at High Beeches Junior School. Rotary in Harpenden provided the initial funding to teams, all of which are invited to run their businesses at this year’s school summer ‘Feastival’.
Young photographers score with their ‘rebuilding’ shots
Our young photographers fared well in both the Harpenden heat of the Rotary Young Photographers Competition, and in the ensuing district level competition for Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Hertfordshire. They were asked to produce an image on the theme of ‘rebuilding’, which called for a stretch of imaginations. Our entrants did not disappoint!
