Jailbreak has been a school tradition for the past 30 years, with students ‘breaking out’ of school using a variety of different vehicles and taking to the streets to raise money.
Assistant headteacher Claire Monahan said: "Jailbreak is a school tradition and this year’s event was absolutely fantastic. We were thrilled to raise so much for the NSPCC, given how difficult times are at the moment.”
