Dear Sir,
The whole school at Woodham Burn took part in the Race for Life for Cancer Research UK and I have to say all the children put in a fantastic effort and were a credit to their parents and the school.
The staff were also very supportive and several of them ran along with their pupils. It was a marvellous effort all round. Phil Wilson MP being there for the whole event was the icing on the cake as it showed his support for their efforts.
I’d like to thank you, Mr Wilson all the staff at Woodham Burn and the children and their parents for making the event so successful. The sponsorship money will be collected and sent to CRUK in approximately two weeks time. Anyone reading the Newton News who would like to donate should contact the Headteacher Mrs Rowe at the school.
Lynne Phillips, CRUK
