DISTANCE is no hurdle to keeping abreast with school news, including the sports day results.
With help from teacher Darren Gamble, pupils at Normanby Primary School, Middlesbrough, have created their own worldwide website.
Brian Robinson, computer manager at Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council, said: "Isn't it marvellous that grandparents, who may live miles away, can access the site and see the work their grandchildren have been doing?''
There have been more than 5,000 visitors logging on the site, www.normanbyprimaryschool.com, since it became operational in March.
Visitors can look at children's work, school news, and take part in Harry Potter and Pokemon games
