PUPILS have raised more than £1,300 to buy new equipment at their Kidderminster school.

Youngsters at Heronswood Primary School, Spennells, collected £1,356 at a chocolate-themed Christmas fair, organised and hosted by students earlier this month.

Parents were invited to the event and children raised money by selling chocolate bars they had created, holding a tombola and other Christmas activities and Santa's grotto.

The money will be used to buy learning equipment at the school.
