Students from the Level 2 Traineeship in Children's Care, Learning and Development at SERC’s Lisburn Campus have been getting their steps up and raising funds for this years’ BBC Children in Need appeal.

The students have been stepping out every day to walk a total of 26 miles from 1st to 13 November in aid of the charity.   They have also made Pudsey crowns, flags and money boxes and produced an information display about Children in Need.

Their fundraising target of £200 has been smashed and they have currently raised an amazing £250!   But there is still time to donate at BBC Children in Need Just Giving search Pudsey’s Childcare L2.

The dream team took another step out of their comfort zone when five of the class got in front of the camera to share what they have been doing.   Their little film, scripted by themselves, has been whisked over to BBC Northern Ireland and will hopefully be included in the BBC Children in Need telethon this Friday 13 November from 7pm.

This year’s live broadcast will be presented by five familiar BBC personalities: Alex Jones, Mel Giedroyc, Rylan, Sara Cox and Tyler West.

Well done to all the students on the Level 2 Traineeship in Children's Care, Learning and Development!
