As part of the newly-established SVS Foundation, the School community came together for a wine and wisdom evening in the Refectory. Teams of Old Suttonians, staff and parents competed against one another in a quiz set and compered by John Harcourt (Staff 1977-). The event, in support of a pupil's charity, was jointly organised by the School's Junior Leadership programme. 

We are delighted to say that a total of £670.00 was raised on the night, which has gone to Joe Dale’s Cancer Research fundraising efforts. Sadly, Joe lost his father to non-Hodgkins lymphoma and has subsequently been raising funds for Cancer Research UK.  The money raised at the event helped him edge up towards his target total of £4000.00. Congratulations go to the winners of our inaugural quiz - a team of First Form parents.
