Almost 80 Braintree schoolchildren proved they were a class act by graduating from Essex Children’s University.
Pupils from Lyons Hall Primary School, White Court Primary School, John Bunyan Primary School and Bocking Church Street Primary School donned caps and gowns for the special ceremony to celebrate their extracurricular achievements.
The event, held at Braintree Arts Theatre last Wednesday, was organised by the children themselves to recognise their hard work and commitment to volunteering and participating in clubs and learning activities outside of school, as part of the programme.
We have a two-page spread of pictures from the ceremony in tomorrow's newspaper.
