GENEROUS youngsters and members of staff have raised more than £1,000 for Children in Need.

Staff and pupils at Dunbar Grammar School got into the fundraising spirit ahead of Friday's telethon.

A spokesperson for the secondary school congratulated everyone for their efforts.

They said: “Thank you to all our students who dressed up for  and donated to Children in Need.

“The Dunbar Grammar School community, in particular the charity committee, raised a fantastic amount of over £1,000 in cash and £290 in SchoolPay.

“It was a delight to see Mr White, Mr Martin and Hayley McCausland S6 being gunged. 

“Thank you in particular to Hayley for all the hard work she has put into fundraising for charity and all she does in our school community.”

Youngsters from the school’s S1 also baked their own version of Pudsey for the occasion.
