Thank you for all your generosity this year throughout Lent. We raised a grand total of £1600.
Some of the money went to St Cuthbert's Care. £150 was donated to Smile to help children in India who are born with cleft lip, this will provide one operation so that a child can have a chance of a normal life. The cheque was presented to Mr Atkinson at assembly today.

The rest of the money was donated to North East Children's Cancer Research at the RVI. A cheque was presented to Mrs Roberts. Her son Oliver who is in year one was diagnosed with a brain tumor last year but now the family are celebrating after the final scan they have been given the all clear. That's brilliant news!
Congratulations and best wishes from all the staff and children at St Mary's.
