PUPILS at Heathcote Primary School in Warwick are getting a reading boost.
Residents and staff at nearby Austin Heath Retirement Village have presented a cheque for over £1,000 to the school following their Spring Fair – featuring stalls, live music, a tombola and other fun and games – in support of the school’s library and Reading Champions programme, which encourages pupils to promote a love of reading among their peers.
Tim Browne, village manager at Austin Heath, said: “The fair was a wonderful chance to bring the community together while supporting a fantastic local cause. We were excited to raise funds for Heathcote Primary School and celebrate local creativity, including the talents of our residents.”
