I would like to tell you about the actions of three of our pupils who we are very proud of.

An elderly lady who lives on the Purwell estate had slipped on the pavement and fallen. To her rescue came three of our pupils who acted like heroes and not 'ASBOs'. They helped her to her feet and took her to one of their homes where they cared for her before the lady's family came for her.

The elderly lady, a Mrs Pinder, rewarded the three pupils of Purwell School by giving them a box of Hero chocolates each.
