Youngsters at a village primary school have raised more than £2,000 for future projects by skipping.
The children from Dobwalls Primary School took part in a sponsored Skip-a-thon organised by School Council members Ellis, Eliza, Taylor, Kalan, Jayden, Georgina, Robbie, Lucca, Tilly, Shay and Oliver G.
Thanks go to St Keyne Parish Council who donated £400 to the endeavour: the School Council used this money and some of their own to purchase new skipping ropes.
The children skipped from 9.15am until the online school assembly at 2.40pm and the total raised so far is £2,100.
Headteacher Mrs Pipe said: “I am so proud of the School Council who decided to organise this themselves and worked with their class friends brilliantly. The total raised is overwhelming!”
Ellis, the School Council Chair, said: “It was really fun and I enjoyed it, it’s mind- blowing how much we’ve raised!”
