GARAGE boss Mark Watson has come up with some egg-stra cash to kick start a school's Easter minibus appeal.

Mr Watson's Wolsingham Motor Company has given £400 to launch fundraising at Wolsingham School and Community College. The money has bought dozens of chocolate eggs, which will be raffled during the next few weeks.

Organiser Ken Walton has set an ambitious £5,000 target. He said: "The school has raised £15,000 since November for our performing arts bid and the children are putting in a lot of hard work.

"Having a bus will make a big difference because we will be able to involve the children in so many more activities."
