A SCHOOL in Barry bounced their way to raising over £2,000 for Children In Need.
Jenner Park Primary was lent a bouncy castle for the day, November 17, from local business Bounce Little Monkeys bouncy castle hire, and did a bounce-athon, with each year group having a good ol’ bounce on the bouncy castle set up in the school hall.
Reception, years one, two, three, four, five and six and Rainbow Tree all got 30 minutes each to bounce under the watchful eye of teachers including Ms Jemma Savage, Ms Alison Curtis and Mr Ian Hawkins.
