Pupils at St Peter’s Catholic Primary School in Sullington Way took part in the Dress Yourself as an Elf day in support of Rockinghorse Children’s Charity, by coming to school wearing red, green or full elf costume.
This Christmas, the charity will be raising money to provide jaundice monitors for the community midwifery team based at The Royal Sussex County Hospital in Brighton and Princess Royal Hospital in Haywards Heath.

The school has supported the Rockinghorse Dress Yourself as an Elf day for several years and this year managed to raise £178.25, with £18.10 of the total raised by Crocodoodle Creative Pre-School which is based on the school site.
