Record- breaking pupils are awarded prizes

Students have been presented with certificates for their part in breaking a Guinness World Record by taking part in a unique singing event.

Jack Hunt School headteacher, Pamela Kilbey, presented a bronze certificate to pupils who took part in the Sign2Sing event and congratulated them on their achievement.

The event which took place in February last year saw pupils join 130,000 participants across Great Britain to sign and sing a song simultaneously for the Guinness World Record attempt.

Teresa Quail, lead teacher of the deaf, said: “We at Jack Hunt School will continue to promote the inclusion of all individuals regardless of their level of hearing loss and communication mode.”

The Jack Hunt School, in Ledbury Road, is planning to help beat this year’s record, so more students and staff will be involved in the event again on February 6 at 2.45pm.
