MP Graham Stuart has welcomed that Beverley Minster pupils are keeping active and improving air quality by taking part in this year’s Walk to School Week.
This year, pupils and their parents across the country are being urged to ditch the car on the school run, and instead walk, cycle, or scoot to school.
Graham Stuart, MP for Beverley and Holderness, has visited Beverley Minster Primary School to get an update from school leaders.
Mr Stuart met with the Headteacher, Rachel Hatter, and the Chair of Governors, Tim Walker. While there he spoke with them about improvements being made around the school. He also found time to meet some of the pupils to hear about their time there.
Pupils at Beverley Minster Primary School now have 30 new iPads to help complement their learning thanks to the fundraising efforts of the schools’ PTFA run by parents.
It has taken a number of years of running coffee mornings, cake sales, summer fairs, children’s discos and quiz nights to reach the £10,000 total needed to buy the equipment.
9 mums from Beverley Minster CE Primary School are completing between them 3 10ks, 1 half marathon and 2 marathons.
They are undertaking the runs as they look to raise money to buy a new outdoor learning area for their children’s school.
Pupils at Beverley Minster Primary School are working with local artist Emma Garness to create a large-scale work of art that will be displayed in the school’s playground.
With help of pupils aged between 4 to 6 years old, Mrs. Garness is helping create the work that is based around the school’s values of ‘Curiosity, Creativity, Respect, Perseverance, Community and Honesty.’
