Staff and pupils donned dotted outfits for the day, which featured a host of themed activities in aid of the annual charity appeal on Friday 15 November.

“We were raising money with a spotty-themed non-uniform day, and had different events throughout the day, such as Guess How Many Sweets in the Jar, and a spotty treasure hunt,’ said Billy Overton, Assistant Headteacher at our school, which is a member of the West Norfolk Academies Trust.

“All of our 53 children took part. All staff were wearing spotty clothes, and staff ran different activities at lunchtime and break time. We’d be really pleased to have raised more than £150, which would be a great effort for such a small school.”

He added: “Children love raising money for any good cause, and this is no exception.

"It raises awareness of important issues about the lives of children that may differ from most of the experiences children have. It’s even more important when we realise that some of the children in our school may be affected by issues that Children in Need supports.

“It helps to show what a brilliant, caring and supportive community our school is part of.”
