PLAYTIME at Sunnybank Primary School in Bury is to become even more fun, thanks to a £4,000 boost.
The cash, courtesy of the Royal Bank of Scotland (RSB), will give the Hathaway Road school's playground a facelift and create a valuable resource for education, learning and fun.
The transformation of the playground comes as part of the RBS Supergrounds programme, managed by the national school grounds charity Learning through Landscapes, in partnership with environmental charity Groundwork. Sunnybank Primary became part of the initiative through Emma McGuire from the RSB, who is a parent at the school.
Emma said: "As a parent, I know how difficult it is for schools to raise funds and this scheme seemed an ideal way for us to improve the school grounds to help the children develop."
Headteacher Mike Green said: "For some time, the children have been asking for a better playground and have made some excellent suggestions. This will enable us to turn their ideas into reality."
