The pupils from Thorpe Park returned to their own school many months after the floods of June 2007. Thanks to the 8 Hull and East Riding Rotary Clubs (Beverley, Hornsea & East Riding, Holderness, Hull, Hull Kingston, Hull Paragon, Humberside, South Cave & Wolds) who applied for monies from Rotary's national flood funds the school has been able to replace much needed books and computer equipment.
The picture shows pupils and Rotarians absorbed in reading from the books received and working on the computers. Rotary District 1270, on behalf of all the beneficiaries of the national flood funds are very grateful for the support that Naomi Campbell gave to the fundraising. She was so moved by the plight of those affected by the floods that she organised an all celebrity fashion show.
