About the event
Strictly Come Dancing star Molly Rainford visits Ilford school
Pupils at an east London school were visited by two surprise celebrities as part of a national pen pal scheme designed to help stamp out bullying.
CBBC and Strictly Come Dancing stars Molly Rainford, who grew up in Havering, and Rhys Stephenson, who also spent time as a child in the borough, stopped by Cranbrook Primary School in Ilford on February 27 dressed as postal workers to deliver positive letters to the children.
The visit was part of an initiative run by anti-bullying charity, The Diana Award, and Nationwide Building Society, called The Positive Post Box.
Launched in October 2022 following The Big Anti-Bullying Assembly, the scheme invites pupils to write messages of kindness, which are then posted to children at another school.
So far, 300 schools and more than 120,000 pupils have taken part.
