GENEROUS youngsters at a Worcester school have been clubbing together to help needy children.

Pupils at St George's RC Primary School have been bringing gifts into school in shoeboxes, which are to be wrapped and shipped out to less fortunate children in eastern European countries.

They have been working as part of Operation Christmas Child, which is designed to make Christmas a more enjoyable time for the children abroad.

Headteacher Joseph Baker has organised the project at the Thorneloe Walk school for the past three years.
