Vigornian Festive Spirit Raises £800 for Bursaries

Many thanks to all the OVs, parents and former parents from across the Foundation who added some Vigornian festive spirit to their Christmas tree with a King’s Bauble this Christmas! The inaugural year of the King’s baubles saw over 200 sold, generating an incredible £800 for the King’s School Worcester Development Trust Bursary Campaign.

There were three designs to choose from: a simple King’s Shield, a bespoke Old Vigornian ornament, and the opportunity to have a personalised bauble. Each bauble was a round, white, ceramic hanging ornament, with a 7.5cm diameter and approximately 3mm thickness, and came with a gold string.

Hannah Sparrey, Head of Alumni and Business Development at King’s, added, “There was such a wonderful response to the King’s Christmas Baubles, and we are very grateful to all those who purchased one or more ornaments and by doing so supported the King’s Bursary Campaign. Bursaries are an incredibly important part of King’s, bringing a greater diversity to the pupil body for the benefit of all, and providing an opportunity for children to experience all that our incredible school offers.”

In 2024, we hope to expand the offering to include tailored House baubles as well!
