Proud pupils 'cub' together to raise £1,300 charity
DAZZLING dance pupils dressed in neon colours showed their energy and community spirit – and raised £1300 for Sheffield Children’s Hospital Charity during a danceathon.
Pupils at Aston Hall Junior and Infant School - part of Wickersley Partnership Trust – took part in the event organised as part of the Pride of Yorkshire Project – the regional initiative encouraging schools and community groups to support children’s healthcare through creative fundraising efforts.
Throughout the day, children participated in dedicated sessions by key stage, dancing non-stop for 30 minutes at a time and in the afternoon, parents and carers were invited to join the celebration.
Children selected their favourite songs in advance, creating a personalised playlist provided by Streetbeat Entertainment.
Headteacher Scott Holmes said: “We are incredibly proud of all of our students for their enthusiasm and commitment during our recent fundraiser.
“The danceathon was a fantastic way to bring our school community together while raising money for a worthy cause.”
