I am delighted to inform you that we have just had the final confirmation from Tesco that we were the outright winners of the Bags of Help appeal!

Our project – ‘Stalyhill Forest Friends’ came out as the winning project in the January and February 2019 appeal.

As you can imagine we are absolutely over the moon and can’t wait to get started on installing much needed drainage into our forest school hill so that the children can make much more regular use of our forest area.

We know that we would not have won the grant without all the help and support that we have had from our amazing parents and families, so I would like to say a huge thank you to you all! We know that lots of you were badgering your extended families, friends and neighbours into supporting Stalyhill too so this really has been a fantastic community effort.

Our neighbouring Stalybridge schools and Hilltop nursery were also supporting our campaign and I’ve made sure to send our thanks to their staff and families too. We will be delighted to be able to reciprocate and promote their campaigns should they choose to enter a bid themselves.

Once again, a huge thankyou to you all, we will keep you informed regarding the schedule of works as soon as we have more information.

 

Many thanks

 

Mrs L. Lockett
