Well done to the Year 3s for the superb total they raised for Children in Need. £132.50 was an enormous amount! The biscuits looked fabuous thanks to the wonderful decorating by Mrs Vaughan and Mrs Harris. The children showed off their maths skills when working out the change from the sales. Congratulations to Sophie Nathanial who guessed the correct amount of smarties in the jar – over 2600! Well done to you all Mrs Toovey and Mrs Wade were very proud of your efforts.
