“They have responded to the change and are looking after and taking ownership of their environment. We are looking forward to continuing our learning journey together over the next term.”
Businesses have also helped with the renovation of the school area with Brighouse Driveways donating gravel and Northern Joinery donating bark chippings.
Teaching assistant Mrs Rhodes said: “It’s lovely to work in an environment that opens up opportunities for children to develop in all areas of the early years curriculum.
