Woolly fundraiser at WNAT school

There was a wealth of woollies on show when a WNAT school took part in this year’s Christmas Jumper Day fundraiser.

The annual Save the Children charity appeal saw staff and students at Marshland High School don festive knitwear to raise money for the cause.

“We raise around £200 each year, and hope to have raised £200 this time,” said Claire Whitehouse, Assistant Headteacher at the school in West Walton.

Christmas Jumper Day was launched in 2012, and has since raised more than £30 million for children in the UK and around the globe.

Last year, 1.5 million children and teachers and 27,000 workplaces took part, raising £3 million for the charity.

Other WNAT members taking part in the fundraising fun included Smithdon High School in Hunstanton, Springwood High School in King’s Lynn, Clenchwarton Primary, and Walpole Cross Keys Primary.
