Art Auction Success
49_becci_atkinson_wince.jpgArt Auction On Wednesday 2nd July, St Joseph’s held its inaugural Art Auction in aid of Lasallian Developing World Projects and the Zapallal school in Peru. Over 100 pieces of work were donated by both staff and pupils and the evening proved to be a memorable one.

It was a pleasure to welcome Old Boy and auctioneer Johnathan Benson, back to the College; Jonathan works for Reeman Dansie Auctioners in Colchester. He had the audience of bidders in tears of laughter with his constant repertoire and amusing observations.

The evening began with drinks and nibbles, whilst the audience of both students, staff and parents viewed the items up for auction. From then on, the gavel was busy until the final bid was received.

Over £2,500 was raised and all proceeds will be split between the Lasallian developing world projects and the De La Salle School in Zapallal, Peru. This is such good news for the College and due to the huge success, we are already planning another auction next year!
