A group of children are to dress up in the colours of Help for Heroes as part of a nationwide celebration.<\/p>\n

Heroes Day is taking place on Friday (October 21st) and will see children come in to school dressed as a person who inspires them.<\/p>\n

Pupils at Horndean Infants are to dress up in red, dark blue or light blue in memory of Richard Hollington, a member of the armed forces who was killed in Afghanistan, the Portsmouth News reports.<\/p>\n

Horndean Infants headteacher Becky Greenhalgh said: "Help for Heroes is a charity I believe we should all support. It's one way of helping and showing our respect to the soldiers."<\/p>\n

She added it is important children understand the value of the sacrifices made by army personnel, regardless of their age.<\/p>\n

The fundraiser is to take part through the UK and others school children will come dressed as their own heroes, such as Buzz Lightyear, George Best or their mum.<\/p>\n
