Shropshire Star Cash for Schools – It’s Back!
![](https://www.bictonschool.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/thumbnail_image002-600x294.png)
Please look out for information about the competition in the Shropshire Star and help us be in with a chance of winning a share of the £12,000!
The great news is that every school has an equal chance of winning. The prizes will be awarded based on the schools that have collected the most tokens per pupil from Reception to Year 6 so, even though we are a smaller school, we have the same chance as larger schools.
The first placed school with the most tokens collected per pupil will scoop a whooping £5,000, followed by £3,000 for second, £2,000 for third and then two £1,000 awards, which will be presented to the fourth and fifth place schools.
Please drop off your tokens at the school office and we thank you in advance!
