CHILDREN from a south Durham nursery have been stepping out to raise money for a national charity.
Youngsters from Etherley Lane Nursery School, near Bishop Auckland, were helped by their parents to complete around five laps of the school garden, raising over £250 for Barnardo’s.
Assistant head teacher Kathryn Attle, said: "It’s a very good way of getting them to exercise.
"We invited the parents to come in and walk around the garden with the children.
"Everyone has enjoyed it."
The Barnardo’s Big Toddle sponsored walks have seen schools all over the country raising funds for the children’s charity.
