Children in Need - Thank You!

On Friday, we all went topsy-turvey at Rise Park Primary in an effort to raise lots of money for Children in Need! Mr. Shadbolt and Mrs. Bell forgot to get dressed and both turned up to school in their pyjamas, and every child in 4S made a real effort to dress-up for the occasion - whether it was coming to school in a snorkel or shaving off half of their hair! We did some topsy-turvey writing, learnt about number palindromes and raised lots of money by buying Pudsey Bear biscuits. We learnt about an eight year old boy called Harrison whose life had been changed by the money that we raised last year.

An extra special mention should go to the group of year four children who made their own bookmarks and jewellery to sell at break times to raise even more money for Children in Need! With no help from any staff at all, these children were able to make and sell enough home-made bits and bobs to raise £37 for the charity! Well done, all of you! :)

Thanks once again to all the parents, carers and children who helped raise money this year. It really will change someone's life for the better!
