Over the summer, Lennon attended a ‘swim safe’ session run by the RNLI, he enjoyed it so much that he returned every week and even had his picture in the paper!

Lennon has continued to enjoy learning about the life boats and saving lives and has been attending the ‘Rookie Lifeguards’ training each weekend.

Yesterday Lennon came to me and very politely and eloquently explained how the Sunderland Life Boat centre covers a huge stretch of our coastline and how he would like to raise some funds to support this.  Lennon will be providing small jars that he would like each class member to fill with 5p coins which he will then return to the lifeboat station.

There is also a collection bucket in the year three class for other loose change.

I think it is brilliant that Lennon has taken it upon himself to organise some fundraising for a cause he believes so strongly in.  I know that we will all support him!
