TREADING the boards in aid of charity last week were students from South Bromsgrove High School and Technology College.

The school followed up successful performance's of Bugsy Malone and Grease by staging British comedy Gregory's Girl between February 8 and 10. Proceeds from the show are set to be donated to the Teenage Cancer Trust.

The charity was chosen by parents of pupil Jennifer Jones, who lost her battle with cancer last year.

Jenniffer, who studied drama at GCSE level, was an enthusiastic fan of the stage and performed in Twelfth Night and Adrian Mole.

Gregory's Girl follows the story of teenagers and the awkwardness they experience when they start to get interested in the opposite sex.
