Pupils at Ormiston Chadwich Academy with their homemade poppy brooches
CREATIVE children made hand stitched poppy brooches and raised more than £250 for Help for Heroes.
A textile class at Ormiston Chadwick Academy in Widnes adapted a ‘yo-yo’ flower technique to remember the fallen.
They made more than 150 poppies and sold them to staff and pupils at the Liverpool Road school.
Teacher Emma Hatch said: 'I am incredibly proud and overwhelmed at the enormous support we have been shown.
“This is a fantastic achievement.”
