“We have been fundraising for for Temple Street for well over a decade now,” said teacher Patricia Quigley, “We just leave a donation box outside so no one is pressured into giving a set amount and each year we are humbled by the generous family and friends. Regardless, the money will get to the source to help both the sick children and their families in what must always be a worrying time.

“This year over the last few weeks we have been making our own games to play out of boxes, cups etc . It's a great way to show creativity without adding to a rubbish overload and looking after our environment with upcycling.
