We all had a bit of fun in class today. It was all for a good cause “BBC Children in Need”. Each class was given a fancy dress theme and ours was “Pirates of the Caribbean”. Although I did not fully dress up as a pirate, I did wear a stripy top and donate £3 to this worthy appeal.
Other groups of students dressed up as punk rockers, cowboys and cowgirls. Some even wore their pajamas! I will let you all know the total amount of money collected when I find out.
“BBC Children in Need” is a fund-raising extravaganza held every year in November. It helps disadvantaged children to have a better life. These include children who are chronically ill or profoundly disabled, those who've been badly treated by the adults around them, children who live in poverty or inadequate housing, and some who are bullied, excluded or distressed in the U.K.
Join Terry Wogan, Pudsey Bear and many other celebrities tonight on BBC 1 at 7p.m for lots of fun and frolics, all in the name of charity. If you would like to learn some more about the Appeal or donate some money, click the link below:
I’ll leave you now with a music video. It is the official single for the Children in Need Appeal 2006. While you watch the video, keep a lookout for the other stars of "Strictly Come Dancing". I think that's what makes this video extra special, the fact they all got involved in making it.
Emma Bunton – ‘Downtown’.

I ended up watching Children in Need again this year, always do. Emma Bunton's song i think is good but not a patch on the original.
