Tiverton High School Interact Club

Tiverton High School Interact normally meets on a weekly basis during term-time though this has been curtailed of necessity during the lockdowns.  Attendance of students from all year groups (7 to 11) is normally between up to 30 students but the pandemic has restriced more recent numbers..  The work (often in sub-groups) is led and co-ordinated by its student leaders supported in the background by a member of the school teaching staff and link Rotarians from our club.  Students plan the activities, co-ordinate the work and, above all, promote the concept of community involvement to all members of the school community.  One of the side-products of some of the activities outlined below has been the organisation of staff / student events that have enhanced staff / student relations. In the year to July 2020 and prior to the school closing because of Covid-19 the Interact Club has raised over £2500 for the British Heart Foundation and the Tiverton Adventure Playground. In 2021/22 £4500 has been raised for Team Kenya and Hospiscare.
