The school’s Funky Hair Friday, which encouraged pupils to come into school with funky hairstyles, proved a great success.
The fun event gave a fabulous boost to the Little Princess Trust which makes wigs for childern suffering from cancer.
Among those who joined in the spirit of the occasion was Year 6 pupil, Emilija who had at least 12 inches cut of her long hair which was sent the the Trust.
On Friday morning the running total raised stood at an amazing £3,686.
Photographer Tony Hendron went along to catch up with the hair-raising fun.
