St Monica’s RC Primary School took on the Sam Thompson One Million Steps Schools Challenge on May 2nd.
Thompson, of Hits Radio and I’m a Celebrity fame, challenged schools across the country to contribute towards a target of one million steps, a target which was topped when more than 11,600,000 were taken on the day.
Of these more than 400,000 were taken by the primary school’s staff and students on a superhero-themed day attended by Hits Radio DJ Hattie Pearson and firefighters from Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service.
Kelly Slater, who is a teacher at St Monica’s, said: “The children had a brilliant day. We are so proud of their efforts to raise funds for disadvantaged children across the UK, whilst also having a great time keeping active.”
In total they raised more than £1,000 towards the fight against holiday hunger through Bauer Media’s charity Cash for Kids.
