A MOBILE classroom is making a return trip to the North-East to spread a Christian message to schools.

The GSUS Live classroom is a large computer-equipped multi-purpose portable unit.

It provides an environment in which pupils can learn about teachings on everything from fear and forgiveness to rejection, with sessions designed to use attainment targets from several local authority education syllabuses.

The GSUS Live roadshow is run by the education and worship support group of the Christian Resource and Education Support Team.

The unit, which last came to the region in 2003, will be at The Venerable Bede CE School, Ryhope, Sunderland, from June 20 to 24, Sunderland High School, June 27 to July 1, Fyndoune Community College, Sacriston, County Durham, July 6 to 8, and The Hermitage School, Chester-le-Street, from July 11 to 15.

Earlier stops were at Greenfield School and Woodham Community Technical College, Newton Aycliffe.
