PUPILS at a Denbighshire primary school had a bit of added 'egg-citement' ahead of their two weeks off for Easter holiday.

Youngsters at Ysgol Bryn Collen, Llangollen, received a special chocolate treat courtesy of Three Eagles and Tyn Dwr Hall as they prepared for a two-week break.

Each child at the school, from Nursery up to Year Six, were presented with Easter eggs last week - with more than 200 donated in total.

Speaking on behalf of Three Eagles and Tyn Dwr Hall, Director, Vicky Jones, said: “We were delighted to donate almost 200 Easter eggs to the pupils of Bryn Collen before they finish school for Easter.

"As a group of businesses, we care passionately about our local community and recognise that some of the youngest residents have had a difficult year away from school and their friends. We hope this small gesture will bring a smile to their faces."

Purchased from Aldi Llangollen, Vicky says the supermarket staff there were kind enough to help her carry and load up the eggs before they were distributed to the local school.

Speaking about the donations made to the school, Ysgol Bryn Collen headmistress Miss Lisa Howden said: "The children were thrilled to each receive an Easter egg as part of this act of kindness by the team behind Three Eagles and Tyn Dwr Hall.

"This is the third year the team have generously donated something at Easter time to the students and we are tremendously grateful."
