Friday will be a ‘sun day' for 200 plus students at Bellingham Christian School. Principal Bob Sampson announced the occasion on the school's site.

Sampson said he wanted to give the students an opportunity to enjoy the sun and re-energise themselves. He said he had spoken to the guardians and put the proposal before the school board before announcing the decision.
