Sunderland school's royal wedding celebration helps charity

Everyone at Dubmire Primary School at Houghton celebrated the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

The whole school took part and had a fantastic day celebrating the event and even chose a charity to raise money for on the day.

They chose Scotty’s Little Soldiers, one of the five charities chosen by the royal couple.

And, the children managed to raise £222 for the charity, which is dedicated to supporting the children of armed forces personnel who have lost their lives while in service.

Assistant headteacher Sue Richardson said: “What a fantastic day - it was great for the school to feel part of the wider celebrations.”
