Yarmouth Primary School's Great South Run For Pupil

By Lucy Morgan Sun, 28 October 2012 7:00AM

A specialist audio visual computer is top of the shopping list for a group of Isle of Wight runners taking on the Great South Run today.

The parents and teachers from Yarmouth C of E Primary School want to buy the kit that will allow Year Five pupil Jonathan to stay on at the school.

They will be among tens of thousands pounding the streets of Portsmouth.

If you would like to donate some money email headteacher@yarmouthceprimary.co.uk, or call the school on 01983 760345.

We would also like to see your pictures of the Great South Run. Email them to news@iwradio.co.uk or studio@iwradio.co.uk. Good luck!
