Rainbow Day
Rowan's class cause was raising awareness of a charity called the Rainbow Hub, which raises money for children with physical disabilities, as a result of a neurological condition or brain injury. On Tuesday we had a rainbow day. The children came into school wearing rainbow colours (any colour) and had their faces painted. It was a great day. Check out our gallery images.
