"We know that LOROS is heavily reliant on fundraising and I would like to express our thanks to the school community for raising a fantastic £523.18."

Magda, Fundraising Co-ordinator at LOROS added: "It was my pleasure to join the staff and pupils during the LOROS Yellow Day and wonderful to see them all dressed up in their yellow outfits.

"The staff and pupils should be very, very proud of themselves; that is a really great contribution and is truly appreciated by everyone here at LOROS - thank you all.
