‘We were so pleased to be able to support such a good cause.’
A small group of pupils went down to the foodbank to look around and see the work the charity does for those in crisis.
All 23 classes took part and delivered 188 kilograms of food, which will equate to approximately 350 meals for the local area.
Deputy headteacher Sara Petipher said: ‘We are so proud of our pupils here at Copnor. They truly want to make a difference to lives within their local community.’
