Pupils at Parklands Community School, in Chichester, West Sussex, have been named the primary and junior school winners in the South West in this year’s National Doodle Day competition, in aid of Epilepsy Action and the Neurofibromatosis Association. This year hundreds of pupils across the UK entered the National Doodle Day competition by doodling their favourite ‘Doodle Daydreams’
The school will be presented with a Vtech Slim Pad and TV Learning Computer by Roberta Tweedy, a volunteer of the Neurofibromatosis Association, at a school assembly on Monday, July 9.
Kirsty Roman deputy head teacher at Parklands school said: “A child at the school has epilepsy so it seemed like a good idea to support a charity that the children could relate to. National Doodle Day also looked like a really fun event on the website and the children enjoyed looking at all the famous peoples doodles.”
The event, which included a charity auction of almost 300 celebrity doodles, has raised more than £120,000 for the two charities over the last four years.
