Neon parties and painted noses: Melksham marks Red Nose Day

Schools and nurseries across Melksham have come together to mark Red Nose Day.

The day raises funds for Comic Relief, which supports causes in the UK and around the world.

At Bowerhill Primary School, a ‘neon danceathon’ was held to raise money for Comic Relief. Children danced in waves for nearly two and a half hours, waving glow sticks and wearing fun outfits.

Meanwhile, at Butterflies Nursery at River Mead School, teachers painted red noses on the children. There was also a non-uniform day at the school to raise money for Comic Relief.

At Aloeric Primary School, children donned red noses and red outfits to raise money for the good cause. Liverpool tops, Arsenal shirts, and even a Spiderman costume were among the special outfits worn to mark the day.
