Year 9 pupils Oscar, Casper and Ryan are currently completing the volunteering element of their Bronze Duke of Edinburgh Award within the school’s lost property department.

Over the course of this term they have worked tirelessly across two lunch times a week to help reunite Emanuel pupils with their lost belongings by doing weekly classroom drop-offs. They have encountered some sights, smells and of course a few unpaying guests!

Next term, lost property will be open at the new times of 9.50am–10.10am and 1.50pm–2.20pm. Lost property is coordinated by Miss Smith: khadija.smith@emanuel.org.uk
