Students raised thousands of pounds for various charities by dressing up for two cross country races.

More than 900 staff and students from Kings Langley School, in Love Lane, Kings Langley, walked 15 kilometres during the last week of the summer term.

The school chose to support Cancer Research UK and Billy’s Wish Foundation and raised £2678.38 overall.

This week a cheque was handed to Theresa, from Cancer Research UK, during a school assembly.

Billy’s Wish Foundation will receive their cheque for the same amount later this month at the annual Year 11 presentation evening.
