Dennis taking things really seriously, or is it the staples that are holding his kilt together making him wince?  |

In spite of the damp and drizzle and in true Mary Rose spirit, the whole school walked their mile for Sports relief. Each class dressed in a different sporting theme ranging from swimming to hockey to keep fit … Penguin class even ‘walked’ their mile in the hydrotherapy pool!
The route was mostly indoors due to the unpredictable nature of the weather. One of the benefits of having a long main school corridor was that we could quite easily walk a mile – it only took about an hour! Parents, passenger assistants and community members helped us to get around the course and the atmosphere was fantastic. We held a raffle and sold food to boost the funds.
We also persuaded Simon to wear a tutu and he raised over £56. Dennis in his kilt was also a sight to behold!
Overall so far we have raised £278 and this will increase as further sponsor money comes in next week. A grand effort, well done everyone.
