Fundraising for Children in Need

November 15, 2013
You would be forgiven for thinking that pupils couldn't be bothered to get dressed today as smart Hacton uniforms were replaced with pyjamas and onesies. It was wonderful to see so many pupils enter into the fundraising spirit to support Children in Need and, much to their delight, staff dressed up too: Mr Pinkham looked particularly fetching in his Batman onesie and Mr Emes swapped his suit and tie for shorty pyjamas!

The School Council have worked hard all week selling raffle tickets to win a Build-A-Bear Pudsey teddy. The winning ticket was picked in assembly and Pudsey now has a new home with a very happy year 6 pupil. Through the charity events organised by the School Council and fundraising in the Nursery, over £560 has been raised so far for Children in Need. Thank you to parents and pupils for your donations and support.
