Staff and pupils arrived in a wonderful array of denim – from classic jeans to jackets, skirts – all in support of this important cause. Each person donated a gold coin for the privilege of dressing down, helping to raise valuable funds for research into genetic conditions.

During the day, students learnt more about the work of the Jeans for Genes charity and the challenges faced by children and families affected by genetic disorders. 

It was fantastic to see so many students taking part and supporting life-changing research and celebrating the power of small actions to create positive change.
