PRIMARY schools will be doing their bit to support Comic Relief.

Red Nose Day takes place tomorrow (Friday) and will see children dressing up and, in some cases, showing off their talents.

Ballasalla School was the first off the mark. This week teams of children have been cooking and decorating cakes as part of its Comic Relief Bake Off.

Their efforts will be judged today (Thursday) before being sold off tomorrow to raise money for Comic Relief.

Meanwhile, Both Fairfield and Onchan schools have chosen a superhero theme.

Fairfield School is holding a Superheroes Day while Onchan is holding a Silly Superheroes Day, with both staff and children dressing up.

Braddan School will be holding a Britain’s Got Talent show as well as a Red Nose disco.

Children will be dressing in red and, of course, wearing red noses.

Pupils at Marown School, in Glen Vine, will be dressing in red or white, and there will be a cake sale.

Rushen School, in Port Erin, is holding a talent show, and children will be wearing red noses and dressing up. Money raised by the school will be divided between Comic Relief and Craig’s Heartstrong Foundation’s appeal to equip primary schools with defibrillators.

At the Bunscoill in St John’s, the children have organised a range of activities. They will be dressing up as clowns and there will even be a clown competition with pupils performing in front of the rest of the school.

They will also raise money for Comic Relief through a toy stall, cake raffle, hand painting, and a fun run.

Comic Relief has funded 15,786 projects across the UK since its launch in 1985.
