On Friday, people around the country are celebrating Red Nose Day 2022. All of the proceeds raised by the event are used by the charity to support vulnerable people in the UK and all over the world live free from poverty, violence, and discrimination.
Since launching the first Red Nose Day in 1985, Comic Relief has helped a staggering number of people, and tens of millions of pounds are raised every year.
This year, the money raised is still as important as ever. You can find out more about where your money goes here: https://www.comicrelief.com/what-your-money-does.
This year, the children came to school dressed as superheroes or wearing red, donating a pound each. They also took part in activities in their classes.
Our Orange Star Committee have been selling red noses in the run up to Red Nose day and we have raised £300 so far for Comic Relief from selling red noses even before the money from non-uniform day is added.
At Moredon, we believe Red Nose Day is much more than just a television spectacle. The event gives us the platform to teach our pupils about the importance of charity, being generous, and supporting and helping others.
Red Nose Day is such a special event because it allows young people to have fun, laugh, and experience the joy of raising money to help others.
