A SCHOOL community showed its support for an independent Wrexham business, and former pupil, in the most fun way.
Staff at Borras Park CP School all wore brightly coloured leggings on the school's sports day, from CiCi, a women's activewear clothing brand.
Run by Lisa Tudor and husband Craig, the CiCi owners also have two children - Milo and Flynn - at the Wrexham primary school.
Lisa went to the school as a pupil and several of her teachers are now her children's. She also previously worked at the school as a one-to-one teacher.
The 37-year-old, who battles Multiple Sclerosis and Type 1 Diabetes, said: "They have all been such a big supporter of the business, so many of the staff have our leggings.
"Schools are so much a part of our communities, one even had a trip to visit the shop. Borras had also invited us to do a talk when they were covering sustainable fashion.

"Lots of the youngsters wear our children's range of leggings, and the boys will come home saying 'everyone was wearing CiCi again'."
Karen Small, KS2 Lead and Year 6 teacher at Borras Park, said: "Lisa has her own health issues and donates certain amounts of profit to charity. Lots of the staff have bought leggings already, and on any day to day running of the school, you will see at least five pairs.
"We agreed that on sports day, we would all wear them at the same time. PPA teacher Dave Roberts and Year 3 teacher Robert Stock even put on a pair each, and can't wait for a men's range to come out!

"The kids loved it, some were even in the bright yellow CiCi socks, and even in the audience there were plenty of CiCi leggings on parents too."
CiCi are also behind the now much sought after 'Milan, Paris, New York, Wrexham' tote bags. Originally they made 25 of the tongue in cheek bags for opening day, and have now gone on to sell about 1,500. Lisa and Craig also use the business to raise awareness and funds for the MS Society and Diabetes UK.
