RAIN didn’t dampen the spirits of three mums and their children from Broadheath Primary School who charged full steam ahead at the Gung Ho 5k at Heaton Park.

Kim Burns, with daughter Ava, Claire Fox, with her sons James and Thomas, and Sarah Thomason braved the elements to complete the course, with parts verging on the dangerous due to the bad weather.

The course is a 5k fun run, full of giant inflatable obstacles to traverse and all of the Broadheath Primary team members made it to the end.

The aim was to raise money to update the school library with new shelving and books. The group set themselves a target of £5,000. So far, £600 has been raised and other fundraising activities are in the pipeline.
