For the second year running the staff and pupils of Christ Church school joined with others in the area and wore a hat for the day.
We did this to raise funds for the Amy Wallace Magpie Trust. Amy was a local girl would loved life, but tragically had hers was cut short by Leukaemia.
Mrs Phipps knew Amy, and her family, and introduced the charity to us. The trust aims to grant wishes for terminally ill children and we played our part in this, by the simple act of wearing a hat. Why a hat? No other reason than because those who need to undertake chemotherapy often lose their hair and so wear a hat.
The children and staff thank Mrs Phipps for introducing us to this worthy charity and were glad to be able to play a small part in helping others.
