More than £2,000 was raised at a Grease-themed cinema club night.

Money raised from the event, organised by the Friends of Farnham Common School, will buy the school in Beaconsfield Road new interactive white boards.

Caldicott Prepatory School in Crown Lane lent the group its hall and for one night only it was transformed into Rydell High from the 1978 hit film.

A group of 120 people dressed in 50s gear enjoyed an evening of food and music.

Rachael Newton, committee member of the Friends of Farnham Common Infant School, said: "We are delighted to have raised such a significant amount of money for our school by offering people the opportunity to experience an immersive, fun and enjoyable themed film night in a unique and beautiful setting."

The night was held on Saturday, July 16.
