Children at Brimington Manor Infant and Nursery School near Chesterfield in Derbyshire raised more than £2,000 with their event
To celebrate Fruity Friday, pupils dressed in fruity colours whilst learning about the benefits of healthy eating and tasted different types of fruit. They also took part in a sponsored skip, with family and friends donation money for every jump completed in two minutes.
