Seeing spots at West Lynn Primary fundraiser

Pudsey Bear put in an appearance, and there were spots all round, when West Lynn Primary School took part in this year’s Children in Need.

The school was joined by the charity’s famous mascot on Friday 15 November, when they made more than £200 for the annual appeal through a range of fundraising initiatives.

Staff and pupils sported spotty outfits for the day, which also included a special Children in Need assembly, along with classroom activities linked to the fundraising campaign as part of our Personal, Social, Health and Economic (PHSE) provision.

“It is important that we raise awareness for children who are less fortunate,” said Dan Ryan, Assistant Headteacher at West Lynn, which is a member of the West Norfolk Academies Trust.

“The main messages from the day link closely to our PSHE curriculum in becoming global citizens, which supports the idea of seeing the world through other people’s perspectives, and understanding differences.”
