What a truly special Children in Need day it has been here at TMS!

We were incredibly proud to welcome BBC Radio Cornwall to school as they joined us for the grand finale of our Run for Pudsey challenge. A huge well done to everyone who took part. The morning running club sessions before school have been a real highlight of my week, with children and families turning up with enthusiasm and determination whatever the weather.

Thanks to your amazing efforts, participants in Run for Pudsey have raised an astonishing £3,336. To make the final run even more memorable, Pudsey Bear joined us this morning, handing out high-fives and keeping everyone’s energy levels high right to the finish line.

The fundraising did not stop there. Our school was a sea of colour today as children came to school in their own clothes, helping us raise even more money for this fantastic cause. Together, our Children in Need fundraising total now stands at £3700!.

If you tuned in to BBC Radio Cornwall this morning, you may have heard interviews with children, parents and staff sharing their experiences of the event. The excitement continued when all of KS2 performed Penny Lane by The Beatles live on air. They sounded fantastic, and you may be able to listen again through BBC Radio Catch Up.

To round off our fantastic morning, presenter James took to the track himself, completing a few final laps before signing off the show.

This week, Year 1 and Year 2 completed their dance project with Grace. Families were invited into school this afternoon to watch the final performance and see the routines the children have been working on throughout the week. Once again, the children performed brilliantly for the audience and I know the children had a fun week learning the routines!
