Former Hear'Say singer Myleene Klass paid tribute to her old primary school in Gorleston-on-Sea after a fire broke out and tore through the building
Myleene Klass sent her love to her old school, where she now mentors, after a fire broke out. The former Hear'Say singer, 47, took to her Instagram Stories to share a picture of a billowing plume of smoke emerging from the buildings of Clifton Park Academy in Gorleston-on-Sea this week.
‌
She wrote in the caption: "This is my old state school that I now mentor at. To Cliff Park teachers and pupils, I'm glad you're all safe. I'm told the teachers did a phenomenal job of getting you out. I'm sorry your last day of term looked like this, I'm relieved you're all ok. Sending my love," before tagging the school.
‌
‌
She also shared a screenshot of the news article about the fire, before adding: "Well done once again to my colleagues and teachers for getting the children out safely."
Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service was called to the primary school at 13.16 to reports of a fire on Friday afternoon as they vowed to help the school make a full recovery.
Paul Seaman, head of operations at Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service, said of the situation: "We will remain on scene and do whatever is required to support the school and the local community to a full recovery following this incident."
‌
After all children were safe and accounted for, the school released a statement on their social media page. They wrote on Facebook: "Following the fire at the academy earlier this afternoon, we can confirm that everyone is safe and that all children have now been collected.
"Further information regarding the collection of belongings, including bikes and scooters, will be arranged at a later date. Thank you for your co-operation and understanding."
‌
It comes several days after Myleene received an MBE at Windsor Castle for her dedication to raising awareness and advocating for legal changes after experiencing several pregnancy losses.
Speaking with PA news agency, the 47-year-old star said: "The King himself has now acknowledged that miscarriage care and healthcare needs to move forward. We're actually in a position where we can change the law, and women can benefit from it."
Myleene, who has endured four miscarriages herself, has been at the forefront of demanding better support and policy amendments, becoming one of the nation's leading voices for change.
‌
She described the honour as recognition for 'the achievements of so many people that come together' to improve what she called a neglected area of women's health.
"When I was going through my own miscarriages, you feel so invisible – you just feel you need somebody to guide you out of it," she said. "There's so much negativity about miscarriage healthcare – women feel so lost, so dragged down by it all."
