Inspired Scarisbrick Hall School pupils took part in a number of activities for the ‘Captain Tom 100’ to raise money for a variety of charities.
The initiative was in honour of former British Army Captain Sir Tom Moore, who raised an incredible £33million for the NHS.
During the first Covid-19 lockdown last year, Captain Tom - then aged 99 - became a hero across the world when he walked one hundred lengths of his garden in aid of NHS Charities Together.
And he inspired Year 2 at Scarisbrick Hall School to visit Southport Beach as part of their Beachcombers topic; as a tribute they built 100 sandcastles to spell out Captain Tom 100.
In other year groups, pupils did 100 Hop, Skip and Jumps, wrote stories only using 100 words, completed 100 metre runs, performed 100 star jumps, recited 100 Spanish or French words or tried 100 tennis keepy-ups.
Headteacher Jeff Shaw also spoke on Friday with Captain Tom’s daughter Hannah Ingram-Moore about how we can all build on the incredible legacy this British national icon has created.
