PUPILS TAKE A WALK ON THE WILD SIDE IN STYLE THANKS TO DONATION OF HI-VIS VESTS AND BAG TAGS

Added by Love Business East Midlands | 8 November 2017

Pupils from Measham C of E Primary School in Measham are taking a walk on the wild side in style this year thanks to a donation of high visibility vests and bag tags from David Wilson Homes East Midlands.

The developer has supported the school’s hands on, outdoor learning scheme, Forest School, by donating 30 hi-visibility vests and bag tags for pupils to wear on their way to and from Pot Kiln Woods.

The sessions get pupils of all ages out of the classroom for a day to learn about the environment and nature, making shelters, team building and working together.

The high visibility gear will now be used by the pupils to wear over their waterproof jackets to help them stay safe and seen during the trip.

Mrs Newman, Headteacher at Measham C of E Primary School said: “'The children love our Forest School Outdoor Learning and it is great to have these new high visibility vests so that children can 'be safe and be seen' on their walk to and from Pot Kiln Woods.”

John Reddington, Managing Director for David Wilson Homes East Midlands, said: “As a leading developer in the area, we felt it was important to support such a fantastic and enriching scheme for young pupils at Measham C of E Primary School who want to learn more about the environment.    

“By offering pupils a helping hand and donating hi-visibility vests and bag tags, we hope to encourage pupils to stay safe on their trips as the dark nights draw in.”

David Wilson is currently building new homes at its development Nursery Fields in Measham, near the school. With 90% of homes now sold at the development, the housebuilder is encouraging keen buyers to act quickly if they want to secure their dream home here.
