unless there's something important missing from your story.
Their FAQ is clear on this:
School project? check
Non commercial? check
Go ahead and display, forget who you talked to.

See No.19
We, as a charity, are naturally fund raisers.
"Nor can the protected marks be used for fund raising purposes"
As we ask people to come and see the exhibition then ask for donations, we fall into this. That is what they told me.

i'd add, why not explicitly ask people not to donate "because otherwise our partners on the london olympics organising committee will sue us", and add a second advert for, i don't know, an exhibition of "non-olympic art" in a back room, which turns out to be a picture of a girl with blonde hair, a rude penguin, and a discreet donations box?
