RAIN showers threatened to call a halt to Middleton-in-Teesdale Primary School’s colour run.
However, although members of the Friends of Middleton School (FOMS), who organised the event, got a soaking setting up on the playing field, the clouds parted when the first children took to the course.

FOMS member Emma Spry said: “We’ve got a few members retiring this year as their children are moving up to the next school. If anyone would like to join FOMS we’d love to hear from them..”
