Lewis and Ella should be very proud of their wonderful fundraising idea where they arranged a sponsored cycle from Eshaness to Hillswick. Well l done to all who took part and contributed! They
made £473 and the children are coming up with suggestions on how to spend the money although the idea for a swimming pool may be a bit ambitious!
