Holy Trinity Primary School pupils get creative to raise playground funding |
Pavement art for a playground
CHILDREN at Holy Trinity Primary School have used their artistic skills to raise money for a new playground.
The pupils, aged between 4 and 11, decorated the hill next to the Swiss Cottage school.
The huge piece of pavement art was appreciated by passers-by who donated more than £300.
The chalk drawings ranged from flowers to people and rainbows.
Headteacher Rosey Lyall said: “It’s the first day back so this is a fun thing to do.
“We wanted to do something arty and make it look really lively.
“The children had a great time.”
The school needs to raise £5,000 to buy new equipment for the playground. “The children are very excited about this – I just hope we can raise the money to make it happen.” said Ms Lyall.
Karl Bennett, 11, said: “I really enjoyed it. The drawing of my name is my favourite – because everyone can see it.
“I hope we can get money to have some swings in the playground.” |
