Students in St Ives donned the dreaded Christmas jumper to raise money for Save the Children.

St Ivo’s sixth form took part in Christmas Jumper Day on Friday, December 12, and raised £174.45.

A school spokesman said: “The students and some sixth form teachers paid £1 to wear a Christmas jumper. There were some nice ones but there were some awful ones, mainly worn by the teachers.

“It was good to see them raise money for charity and have fun at the same time.”
