Pupils dressed up as their favourite character and took part in a sponsored fun run during the school’s book week. The school is part of a county project to replace outside classrooms, and a new classroom will be built on the decommissioned swimming pool site, with a library. But money is needed to stock it, shelve it and hopefully bring in an ICT research facility. The fundraising by the school’s parents’ 
association has so far raised more than £3,000.
