SCHOOLCHILDREN have been busy raising funds for two charities.
The youngsters, from class 9FW at the Allertonshire School, in Northallerton, took part in a sponsored silence, which raised £124, and held a sweet sale. They also had a collection box for loose change.
In total, the class raised £150 which was split equally between the Blue Cross Centre in Topcliffe near Thirsk, and Christian anti-poverty charity Tearfund.
