Schoolchildren in Helston had a fun-filled and fundraising Friday as they enjoyed the chance to dress up - or down - for Children in Need.

Pupils at both St Michael's School and Parc Eglos School had the opportunity to wear something spotty, dress up as a hero, or to come in their favourite pyjamas or onesie.

Parc Eglos pupils raised a grand total of £360 with donations for the non-uniform day and an after school cafe.

The children of St Michael's collected £615 with a collection at school, a cake sale, and customer donations at Santander, and the total is expected to be match-funded by the bank for a grand total of £1,230.
