A mime artist, a dancing Chewbacca and a ventriloquist were just some of the wild and whacky talents on display at Lewes Old Grammar School on Friday, as they showcased their top-class talents to raise hundreds of pounds for this year’s Comic Relief.
Juniors from Morley House put on a day of fundraising fun for the campaign, which began with students and staff wearing red clothes to school and also saw pupils baking cakes and selling red noses to their peers.

Ultimately, year 6 students Gracie and Isla beat off stiff competition to take home the prize after performing a show-stopping song-and-dance routine.
