Pupils use pedal power to raise money for Bath school
|
|
|
|
|
Four Year 3 and 4 pupils from Roundhill Primary School in Bath have got on their bikes to raise funds for the Southdown school.
Kacie, Esmae & Noah and Ellie-May took part in a 15-mile sponsored bike ride last month and raised more than £1000. They cycled from Twerton to Bitton via the Avon Valley Railway track.
The cycle ride was organised by the children and their parents as they wanted to raise money for the school.
Esmae said: “I really liked the bike ride but I ached the next day. I wanted to raise money for my school.” Noah-Rae added: “I rode the whole thing on my BMX, which only has one gear. They hills were hard work!”
Vicky Dupras, Head Teacher at Roundhill, said: “We are all so proud of the children for their sponsored bike ride. The money that they raised will be donated to the Friends of Roundhill who provide funding for a wide range of things for the school, including funding trips and visits for the children.”
