STUDENTS took part in a theatre workshop to help promote the anti-drink driving message.
Pupils from Hurworth School, Maths and Computing College, worked with the APE Theatre Group to perform Too Much Punch for Judy.
It recreated the story of Jo Poulton, who was killed when a car driven by her sister, Judy, who was over the drink-drive limit, crashed. The event involved 15 and 16-year-old pupils at the school, who will soon be eligible to start driving lessons.
Teacher Rita Rees said: "The play was excellent and really brought home to the students the dangers of mixing alcohol and driving."
* Hurworth pupils raised £730 on Friday in Jeans for Genes Day. Students paid £1 to wear jeans, staff baked cakes and there was a book sale.
