STUDENTS at the College of FE helped to raise £129 for Children in Need yesterday – with a life-size drawing of Pudsey Bear.

BTEC Level 2 health and social care students, at the new Delancey campus, came up with the idea of drawing the BBC charity’s bear onto paper and getting people to place their spare change and notes onto it.

Danielle Tostevin, 16, had come up with a similar fund-raiser at Les Beaucamps School.

‘We did it at my old school but it was for another charity and was a drawing of Guernsey – so when we talking about what we could do to raise money, I suggested this,’ she said.
