Music students fundraise for ‘Digifest’ festival

Digitech’s Year 11 music students are currently raising funds to help bring their highly anticipated ‘Digifest’ festival to life in early April.

To kickstart their efforts, they hosted a successful ‘band T-shirt’ day, where students and staff donned T-shirts and hoodies in honour of their favorite bands and artists.

Voluntary donations were collected on the day, with all proceeds contributing towards purchasing merchandise and refreshments for the festival. In total, £50.00 was raised by staff and students.

The festival promises to be an exciting celebration of live music and creativity, and all profits raised from the event will be donated to Childline, a charity chosen by the students.

The ‘Digifest’ team is still on the lookout for additional support to make the event a success. If you or someone you know would like to get involved, please reach out at [email protected]. Here’s how you can help:

• Bands/artists – If you are a musician, solo artist, or part of a band and can donate 30 minutes of your time to perform at this charity event, the school would love to hear from you.
• Sponsorship – We are seeking corporate or business sponsors willing to make a small contribution to our festival funds in exchange for promotional opportunities across our social media channels and event materials, including signage and leaflets.

Sam Eason, Deputy SENCO and teacher of music, said: “We encourage everyone to support this fantastic cause and help us make ‘Digifest’ a memorable event for both our school and the wider community.”
