THE TGC 1509 CHALLENGE

Founded in 1509, our school has a long history not only of academic excellence but also of supporting those in need. Generations of students have taken part in charitable efforts, and this year, the TGC is proud to continue that tradition with the launch of the 1509 Challenge. A series of fundraising challenges, created by each individual taking part, based on the number 1509.

Starting at the beginning of the new school year in September and running until the end of October Remedy, TGC members will be taking on a variety of self-set challenges to raise money for the school’s bursary fund. These will include everything from chess matches and running goals to push-up routines and reading targets. Each challenge is designed to push us in different ways — physically, mentally, and creatively — and we’ll be sharing our progress along the way. However, it isn't just the TGC taking part, the goal is to get as many fellow pupils involved as possible. We are encouraging the whole school to sign up to the 1509 Challenge and fundraise for their own challenge, based on the number 1509.

Our aim is simple: to complete our goals and fundraise as much as we can to support students who wouldn’t otherwise be able to access the opportunities our wonderful school provides. Every donation goes directly to the bursary fund and makes a real difference.

Some examples of what we'll be up to:

  • Cycling 1509km
  • 1509 press-ups in a week
  • 150.9 games of chess
  • Writing a piece of music using 1509 notes!


Thank you so much for visiting our site and for supporting the 1509 Challenge. We’re excited to get started and incredibly grateful for your help. Please also submit any photos to tgcommittee@stpaulsschool.org.uk; we would love to see your challenges in action.

SuperKind is a secure and reliable way to maximise donations to your chosen charity:


All donations are processed by our established partners Stripe and Charities Trust. SuperKind never handles your donations.


Our payment partner, Stripe, deducts a processing fee of 1.2% + 20p from all donations made with a major UK or EU card (other cards, including American Express, may incur higher fees). This goes straight to them (not to SuperKind) and is the lowest fee on the market. 100% of the net amount goes to your chosen charities.


Unlike other fundraising platforms, SuperKind is a social enterprise. We are dedicated to inspiring and empowering the next generation of change-makers.
