STUDENTS and staff at Middlewich High School paused this morning to reflect on Monday's Manchester attack.
The school joined in a nationwide minute's silence at 11am today, Wednesday, and offered its condolences to the victims in neighbouring Holmes Chapel as well as further afield.
A spokesman said: "Our school community is working together to support all affected by the tragedy this week.
"Our thoughts are with our friends at Holmes Chapel Comprehensive School and across the nation.
"If you would like additional help at this difficult time please contact our school reception on 01606 288170 for advice."
The Guardian is supporting the Manchester Evening News fundraiser for those affected.
