PUPILS have been busy fundraising for new learning equipment.
Children at Wyborne Primary School, Footscray Road, New Eltham, ditched their uniforms and wore football kits for the day.
Each child paid 50p to take part in World Cup day, which raised money to buy classroom whiteboards.
The pupils also helped to organise the annual summer fair, where visitors enjoyed attractions including face painting, a bouncy castle and a cake sale.
The fair raised around £1,700, which the school hopes will pay for whiteboards for every classroom.
Parent governor Sue Ward said: "All the kids had a great time, it was just a shame about the weather. It was absolutely tipping it down."
She added: "The money is vital to help the children improve their learning."
