Laura Thomson, 9 and Iain Jackson, 7, are chipping in
By Cara Sulieman
CHILDREN at a Scots primary school facing the chop are donating their own pocket money in a desperate bid to save it from the axe.
Pupils at Drumbrae Primary in Edinburgh bandied together to try and win over education chiefs who say that they do not have the resources to keep it open.
The children including Laura Thomson, nine, and Iain Jackson, seven, decided to donate their own cash in the hope it would help.
Their coins have been sent to the three councillors representing the area – Colin Keir, Robert Aldridge and Jenny Dawe – along with a letter saying what the cash is to be used for.
