LUCKY MASCOT
My sister entered a raffle competition on Radio City for the chance to be the mascot at the Derby match this season and she won the Liverpool FC prize for me.
I was LFC mascot for the Liverpool v Everton Derby on Saturday 6 February 2010. I met and had my photo taken with all the players and subs; led the team out onto the pitch and had a little kick around in front of the Kop with some of the players.
We won 1.0 and Dirk Kuyt scored the winning goal, I had a brilliant day that I will never forget and here are a couple of photos of me with Steven Gerrard.
Radio City's Cash For Kids raised over £30,000 for local children's charities in Liverpool, the North West and North Wales.

HAITI TOTAL NOW AT OVER £1,400
Haiti appeal: Following the really terrible events of the last few weeks in Haiti, the children and staff have been raising funds to send to the relief effort. As of 6th March our total collection adds up to over £1,400. This is tremendous and reflects the generosity of Hoylake families. The children have also been having a book mark competition and sale (currently £40), and have been selling copies of the latest "Trinity Express" (see newsletter page), also in aid of the appeal. Following a Teddy donation by one of our staff, we promptly had a raffle and it was won by Cameron from Year 5.
Please go to the Calendar page for more information about the events the children have organised. Thankyou.
There are many links to websites that you can donate to. DEC is a very secure organisation.

The Big Garden Bird Watch (Tuesday 19th January) - went extremely well with plenty of young ornithologists watching out for sightings. A strong emphasis was made on accurately identifying the birds, and an RSPB warden was on hand to help. Just as we finished a vast delta of Canada Geese, numbering about 400 flew overhead, heading for the marshes towards Burton. Later a Radio Merseyside journalist interviewed several children about Bird Club and this was broadcast last Thursday but can still be heard via the internet.
