RED Nose Day organisers came to see for themselves why Bohunt School pupils have been such stalwart supporters of the biennial fundrasing day for Africa.

Charity workers arrived at the Liphook school last Friday in time to give an assembly and run workshops with students giving them an insight into the work they do as Comic Relief celebrated its 25th anniversary by raising a record £75million across the UK.

Bohunt teacher Paul Barry has supported the event since its introduction in 1988 and Comic Relief has always liked the way the event is run within the school.

Mr Barry was on the BBC's One Show talking about all the work the school has done, as part of the build up for the 2013 appeal. While on the show, he asked Comic Relief founder Richard Curtis, who also directed films such as Notting Hill, to sign a Bohunt polo shirt, which was auctioned to raise money for this year's event.
