THE Wrexham primary school has received £500 funding from a local home builder for new forest school resources.

Park Community Primary was awarded the funds by Anwyl Homes, who are building close to the school at the Maes-y-Rhedyn development, off Straight Mile Road.

Headteacher Rebecca Billington said: "We're working on several improvements to our school's outdoor learning areas. Expanding the resources and tools on offer in our forest school is one of the ways we're helping children to build practical skills and learn about nature.

"Anwyl's generous donation has been used to buy gardening and woodwork tools, and the children have already been making great use of these. We use the forest school all year round, and even more so though the summer months, when being outdoors can really help boost learning."

Graeme Gibb, sales director for Anwyl Homes Cheshire and North Wales, said: "We're really pleased to support Park Community Primary enhance their forest school provision. The school has created a brilliant place for children to gain a greater understanding of wildlife and build on their practical skills, like woodwork and upcycling."

Children from Year 5 took part in a cricket festival hosted by Criced Cymru and despite the really hot weather, all of the children who took part had a great time and were very enthusiastic to share their experiences when they returned to school.

The children who took part were a credit to the school, which is proud of their achievement.

Here are somethings that have been happening lately at St Mary's Brymbo. We are hoping to be featured in the Leader Live school report section.

Clubs are chosen by the children - crochet, Lego club, gardening, games club, cooking, art club and sailing. The group change every half term so the children can change groups.

They have also held an engineering morning creating structures inspired by the Seven Wonders of Wales.
